The point of using a 2009 motor is the fact that it does not have an Intermediate Shaft unlike your 3.6.

He gets it! Not to mention that I like the dash on my 986 better than the set up in the 987, and I spent all that money on my KW coilovers...

I'm sure the new motor, minus an Intermediate Shaft is a very fine engine; however, version 3.0 with an IMS may turn out to be more reliable than version 1.0 without an IMS.
