Head Gasket Repair 92 960 190k 900

For sometime (a year or more) I had a coolant loss but could'nt find it. I did everything in the FAQ's. I had it checked out by the dealer and local shops, but the coolant loss continued and I watched it carefully. The car never overheated. I was loosing a overflow tank every two to three weaks.I throught I had the ploritsy problem and lived with it. During an oil change at a local shop they used some sealer and reduced the loss to topping it off every couple of months. Now I have noticed the coolant in the oil. I assume it is the head gasket. What will a head gasket cost on this vehicle, I not sure i can do something like this on my own.I live in southern NH. Can any recommend a shop.The car is mine and I have done rotors, front and rear shocks(niv's), cat,headlamps,intake manifold gasket, ac change over, timing every 30k(but of coarse), so I am vested. Please go easy on me,I was almost afraid to ask this question because of the problems with these cars.I get the feeling people are sick about talking about these 960's.

Thank You,
Joe
Southern NH
