If you cant have someone rebuild it for you for a reasonable price then buy a reman with centerbolt heads and put your TPI over on it. How much $ do you want to spend?

Less than 1,000. Don't know where to go. Could you provide a link to a "reman with centerbolt heads"?

You would be lucky to build it yourself for 1000. Find a good junkyard engine may be your best route u may find one for 4-500 in good running order. Most shops even shadetree mechanics will charge you 1000 for swapping an engine out. It aint cheap.
