I have  1000 miles on a rebuilt wasserboxer, but I now live 350 miles
from the shop  that installed it.     The installing shop did an oil
change  at 500.

What needs to be done at 1000 miles on a  rebuild?

Did you not get a recommended service document with  your rebuilt engine ?
This information should be provided by the  rebuilder, not someone else.   I
provide my customers with one for the  engines I rebuild.  See my _VW Waterboxer
Engine  Rebuilding_ (http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/engines.htm)  webpages.
