I agree with Bradsc above. Buy a 964 or 993 and put it on a serious diet. No AC new seats ,RS door panels etc can probably strip it to 2600 lb maybe less if you get rid of everything you can Thats less than a stock SC weighs and you get the 3.6, G50 bigger brakes etc..If you need a topend eventually then go for big valves,hotter cams and ARP rod bolts and look at 300 hp. I have done a 3.6 SC and now have a 993. I just sold a 1980 with 3.6 and lots of other upgrades for $18 and picked up a 95 993 for under 20K . The 993 needs the trans rebuilt as it grinds into 1st but the car has PSS9s,sways LSD and needs nothing else. I would not bother doing a 3.6 swap again as newer aircooled prices continue to drop. Also consider your stock unmolested older car will bring max money unmolested as people are seeking clean original ,not modded cars.
