I haven't had personal experience with headgasket problems, but I can offer a couple small suggestions:

+ Check out the cooling system page in the FAQ... lots of info there. If you get all the work done and plan to keep the car, consider installing the coolant level sensor descibed in the FAQ... pretty easy job, and an extra level of awareness for you.

+ I can recommend an excellent Volvo-only mechanic in NJ: Raw Bear Performance in Clifton. The proprietor, Robert, is kind of eccentric, but he and his crew really know their stuff on the RWD cars, and their rates are extremely reasonable. You might want to give them a call if things don't work out at the shop where the car is now...
