LOL, change of plans. Maybe able to get a 99 SAAB 9-3 5dr hatch. Really clean inside and out. Base model...to be continued.

If you plan on buying and modding an NG900/OG9-3 1999 was the best year as it has all the updated parts that switched from the NG900 to the OG9-3 but still retains Trionic 5 engine management as opposed to the newer Trionic 7. T5 is much easier to tune and also allows for a cheap MBC where as with T7 you will have a much harder time tuning if doing it yourself or end up spending big bucks on a mailbox tune also an MBC only wont work with T7.

If you end up getting the saab make sure you check out www.saabcentral.com and www.saablink.net

Thanks for the info. I looked on saabcentral and could not find info on removing installing an engine. Need to check saablink. Any other info?

Why do you want to remove the engine, is it blown?

Here is another great site with tons of DIYs w/pics, including engine removal/installation -> http://photo.platonoff.com/Auto/
