If your vehicle is overheating due to head gasket issues, best to buy a replacement engine with a safe warranty margin.
If it's caused by a leaking radiator or similar little issues, you are in luck.
Kazeems, do not usually know how to repair head gasket issues, don't use good money to chase bad!!!!
