Wow! 
I thought, I'll need to replayce gaskets, but it turned out, that also one
of the heads must be raplaced:(  So for the parts (head, both head gaskets,
some more less important gaskets) ~1000$ and ~600$ labor. Total - ~1600$.
But when I asked, how much would be, if replacing only head gaskets, it was
- ~200$ parts and ~350$ labor.
Thanks God, I'm not living in USA;))
Anyway, it seems very expensive...
