As for a "weekend," one shop quoted 20-24 hours, and they've done this before

Yeah, shops like to quote high so they are covered for the unforeseen like rusty bolts which there won't be any on a Porsche. A buddy was quoted $1100 labor for a clutch on his 2002 911, it didn't take us 4 hours total and an hour was spent on the multipiece silly plastic undercovers on and off. Oh and yes that included doing the flywheel which was shot. Hey if you are not comfortable and short on tools, don't do it because once you are in it no one will take over the job. Sounds like you budgeted for it so it's not a problem for you.
