Need a new Cylinder Head for my R53

Anybody know where I can pick up an R53 cylinder head? Looking to spend less than < $1200. My head is cracked in a few places so a core exchange is probably out of the question.

Im in Northern CA.

For $1295 or so you can get a Thumper ported and polished head. Not sure how they handle the core exchange - that may cost you another $500 if you don't have a core. I'm going to need a new head on my R53 soon and that's the route I'm going.
