Personally I do not know why you would want to grind out Stud Hi-Lo when that game is very complex. To make your "$1000" a month goal you will likely have to about 6 to 8 hours playing more than 4 tables of Stud Hi-Lo. I could go into some mathematical magic, but I'm too tired for that haha. You will likely meet your goal if you moved up in stakes like playing $2/$4 Stud Hi-Lo with a decent ante size.
