    it will more than likely be the head gone and not the gasket.It is very rare to find just the gasket gone

        strip it all down and if you cant visually see any cracks in the head then get it pressure tested to make sure.It will cost anything from £30 to about £50 for the pressure test

          Its worth nearly nothing with a blown head, if you still want a truck to use you'll still have to buy another one, you may as well fix it even if its the head, as you know the rest of the truck is sound and has lots done to it.
