You can spend many 10s of thousands and still have a car slower than a 993.

I was thinking the same thing and was going to post it. If a used 3.6 engine is that expensive, just sell the SC for the crazy current price, throw another $20k at the problem and buy a good 964 or 993. Or sell it and buy a nice 996 turbo for a lot less, put a few thousand, (very few), into it and have a serious rocket. We're talking *widow maker* power.
Spending big $$ to rebuild and massage a 3.0 doesn't make sense. You won't get more than 250hp out of it. A lightly breathed-on 996tt is 500hp easy.
