Engine out, big decision, need input

Ok, I am somewhat embarrased to say that now that I have my engine out, I am just now really condisdering taking it apart and doing a rebuild. It looked like it would be $1000 or more to do the rebuild before I started, so I settled on replacing all gaskets so I can drive my 1990 SPG daily.
Now that I have spent several hundred dollars on new gaskets, pumps, etc I am really considering rebuilding the engine. My good friend is a certified volvo mechanic so i have him to help me with machining, etc. How much really is it going to cost me to do the rebuild if I do it all myself? Basically I'm asking how much in parts is it going to cost? I have done several searches but I have found the specific details reguarding costs. I appreciate your time and input.
