So in summary we are working whith a weak (likely to randomly fail) engine unit working at very near it ultimate output,its a secenario a lot of people go through when modifying their engines not IMO acceptable reliability and kudos for a previously reliable PORSCHE model with only 15bhp more than its air cooled predessor.

Sorry to hear of your troubles but your not alone there are many posts like this one. Hartech are one option you have and Southern engines.co.uk are another. New will be best but 3 times the price.
There are also some people that will buy the car as is but the price will be depressing.
Good luck and be careful where you go.
