Kits can be as low as 300 bucks, the time it takes though is quite a bit for a first timer. If you have a pro do it, probly 2-3K. But if it runs fine I'd wait to get it rebuilt. I can do body work fine...but I'm not sure how I'd do rebuilding an engine. I saw some kits on Summitracing.com, they ranged from $300-$500   Body work is completely different from building a motor. I wrote that wrong. I was trying to show I knew about that, but nothing about the rebuild hinshawwrx Posted at 6:30 pm on June 29, 2008 Quote: from ss454 at 7:35 pm on June 29, 2008 Quote: from hinshawwrx at 8:27 pm on June 29, 2008 a rebuild kit and some time would go a long way.

As is the same for other GM owned european makes Sorry that I don't sit at home and read up on American influences in the European car market Then why did you post an ignorant statement? Its not even hard to do 5 mins of research to show how wrong you are. Your an idiot, don't step back in here.

Basically every Saab has its own platform, and the Europe division is very different to the North American division. Even Australia has Unique GM platforms. tkedwn119 Posted at 6:03 am on June 29, 2008 Quote: from hinshawwrx at 9:50 pm on June 28, 2008 Quote: from tkedwn119 at 8:47 pm on June 28, 2008 Quote: from hinshawwrx at 6:11 pm on June 28, 2008 Quote: from ScoobyDoo82 at 7:28 am on June 28, 2008 Quote: from tkedwn119 at 11:44 pm on June 27, 2008 I don't like any domestic cars.  I only like BMWs, Mercedes Benzs, Porsches, and Saabs       Saabs are domestic...
