Try checking your local craigslist for a parts bike you could use. Maybe check everything your bike will need throughout the build and see if other things can be used too. Or check ebay for a swing arm. Theres a classifieds section on this site you could check to.

You know that the 80 1000 motor is not just going to swap out into the 750 frame without a lot of fab work to the frame & motor mounts

Whats wrong with your current 750 motor? Why not just just give it a top end rebuild. I doubt anything lower would go bad.
