Buy the 2.7 with the link from above (+$200 shipping). Then pay $2K to have it installed ($1200 to r/r the engine + $800 for a major service and miscellaneous) and you're back on the road for $4200.
Half the price of a rebuild.

That's about the quote I got from my Porsche shop to replace an engine with a lower-mileage used one should I ever need to, so I know it can be done.
