2017.0. "Advice needed on engine swap!!!" by WOTVAX::DRAPERP (Peter Draper) Wed Feb 10 1993 10:34

    
    HI
    
    I'm after some advice from all the SAAB peoples out there.
    
    My brother has just bought an old SAAB 900 GLS (x reg) that is a non
    runner- he has been offered an engine block from a SAAB 99 for 50
    pounds - Does anyone know if it is possible to mate the head and
    gearbox from 900 to the block of 99. Or if anyone has done engine
    change on a SAAB I would like to hear comments, experiences or problems   	
    they have encountered.
    
    Thanks in advance ....
    
    
    Pete.
