Tough call.
I recently did the valve seals on my 245K mile '95 854T to fix an oil burning / consumption issue.
It was a challenge, but I got through it.
The suggestion to check the compression of your current engine is a good one.

Overall, I'm glad I did it.
My oil consumption was 700 miles/quart.
I've only gone 2,000 miles since the repair, but so far it hasn't gone down at all.
