Need rotary help
Does anyone within the Philadelphia region know how to change the head gasket? And how much would you charge?

is this for an RX-7? if yes RX7s dont have head gaskets they have coolant seals and you will need to pull the engine out for a rebuild.

Yeah, there is no head gasket in a rotary. There is no head nor pistons. Go to www.howstuffworks.com and search rotary engines. They have pictures of an engine all taken apart, as well as videos of how it works.
