If i needed the money I'd have let it go for 70k but that's not the case. The reasons I considered selling: space for a table saw, too many vehicles, and the project is done. As far as a low powered 2.7? I doubt that would be a first thought if you drove the car. I've owned many cars in my life and yearned for more HP in most but not with this car. It weighs 2300 lb.s and dynos 154 HP at the wheel (probably not much below 200 at the crank).The power is more than adequate at this weight. A 10lb/1hp is a ratio we all strive for in a build and this car approaches that (in a very small car). It has my full attention when driving aggressively. I should probably just keep it, I'll never find another rust free 60 year old Porsche with 60k miles. Besides being super fun to drive it's also the prettiest car I own. Maybe I'll build a separate little garage just for it and it can become a family heirloom
