Glad to hear your car made it out of that accident okay. My car, on the other hand, is not so healthy. Had a bit of a run in with some bad luck while replacing my timing chain. Long story short- some valves had a party with some pistons and my car is currently a 3 thousand pound paper weight. Anyone that's reading this, by the way- feel free to ask me any tips about changing the timing chain in an NG 900. I'll let ya know where i went wrong. The good side of that bad luck is that i was able to turn the engine over by hand previous to starting it, so the valves didn't hit the pistons THAT hard. Hopefully i'll have the money together to get it in the shop by July. After that i'll have a nicely rebuilt engine that'll run strong. How's that for some positive thinking, huh? haha. Anyway, i got the subframe torque specs from the Saabmaster site, but i think i'll just get the mechanic to do it while he's working on my engine. Thanks for the offer though. What i REALLY want to get my grubby little hands on is the NG900 manuals on cd. Someday......someday..... Dave (who is in Halifax, by the way...) On Wed, 22 May 2002 22:47:01 -0400, "B.
