You never said how much the purchase price of the car is. It might not be worth buying, but it will depend on how much damage there is when the engine is opened up (I am assuming it doesn't run, which could be incorrect). You could need a complete engine rebuild at 5k+ for the rebuild. The natural thing to do would be to add the Carrera chain tensioner kit to the rebuild, or to what ever work is being done. Have a Porsche mechanic check it over before you jump the gun.
If a full rebuild is needed, you might want to find an early "S" engine for the same money, to add some ooomph to your "T". If the car is only a few thousand dollars and the rest of it is in beautiful shape, it might be worth the risk.
