1.9L SOHC - head gasket set which includes all gaskets needed to remove cylinder head with thermostat runs about $150.00. Head mechine ( check for cracks and milled ) $145.00. Labor time to remove and reinstall cylinder head 8.5 hrs X shops labor rate.

1.9L DOHC - head gasket set and thermostat runs about $210.00. Head mechine $175.00. Labor to remove and reinstall cylinder head 10.7 hrs X shop labor rate.

Labor times per Mitchell labor book, this is a guide all repair shops used.

call around,, most likely $1200 to $1800

Is your car an SC1 or an SC2 model? The reason I ask is because a head gasket for the SC2 is about $150 while the head gasket for the SC1 is about $70. Depending on what shop you go to, the labor rate can run anywhere from $85 an hour to $150 an hour. That should answer your question.
