The way you worded your question makes it very hard to understand. Do you want to do ALL the gaskets or just the top end?

If your machine is still under warranty, dont tear into it. Take it to the dealer.

Top end gaskets are about 30 bucks for a kit and are relatively easy to replace. Make sure you get the surfaces clean, torque the bolts correctly, locktite where necessary, etc.
