You didn't say what model you have. Is it a V4 or the model 99? Whatever it is, there is a list called VSAAAB (vintage SAAB) at vsaabnopsamxus.com unless they've moved. There was a performance kit for the V4 engine including high compression pistons, mag lifters, larger exhaust valves, big bore exhaust, 2 bbl carb, etc. which raised the HP from around 65 to as high as 120. Cheapest increase in HP is the exhaust. Jack Ashcraft in Oregon is expensive but he does carry stuff for the V4's. Charles.
