Would head gasket repair products work on a 89 firebird formula 350 5.7L?

No. Fix it right. Some of the sodium silicate sealers can work for a little while, sometimes, but they always plug up parts of the cooling system. So a week later, the leak comes back, plus the heater core and radiator are all gummed up. Changing the head gaskets on this car is pretty easy, and the parts are cheap. Only try the goop if you are otherwise ready to junk the car.
