Default Cracked or bent valves...ah well

Last night coming home from school on the highway (East on 80/94 in Indiana), and did not see the 2 FOOT PUDDLE. Well, engine turns over no compression. I'm guessing cracked or bent valve(s). Ok my question is just swap out the whole motor because it had 147k on it, or just get the head repaired. My mechanic said just to get the head repaired, but I know that d16y8 motors are pretty cheap anyway. He didn't say, but it sounded to me like he wouldn't want to swap the whole engine. It is an auto, I've heard of some people on here getting the b18b auto swap, do you think that would be easier said than done or just get Y8. It's wierd because I'm not really that pissed about it. h:
