You could just pull off all of the accessories yourself, remove the head, and then just pull your block out and bring it to a machine shop to have it cleaned and machined and rebuilt. I bet that'd cos...

Ebay has some for less than $700. Most are compression tested, inspected, and come with a 30 - 90 limited warranty.
