One word of advice, set the engine to zero timing before taking it apart or you can break the engine just by taking it apart. Also buy a set of cam locking tools right off the bat. This is no Chevy 350, it's quirky, almost a puzzle to take apart and re-assemble.

You have my awe and respect. I've rebuilt enough motors to know when something is going to be over my head. I don't know about Canada, but here in the US, one can find decent 2.7 engines relatively cheap--I paid $2500 (shipped) for my complete engine--putting it in right now.
Doing the Boxster engine looks like a real puzzle that require 4 hands.
