Both prices seam decent, considering rebuilding the current engine will run you in the 4 to 5 K mark. I had the head on mine rebuilt under warrenty, and the parts alone were close to $1500 with 15 hours labour at $95hr.

I'd go with the $700 option and part out the existing engine to try to recoup some of the cost!
