What engineering features does Saab incorporate that allows these engine to go 300K miles without a major rebuild ? Give me what you've got - I need some good info to beat a 8-cyl owner over the head with. He claims that a 4-cyl has to wear faster since they spin higher RPMs for their lifetime. I can't argue that they spin slower, but I know there's a reason that Saab motors actually last longer than the v8 (I just don't know what that reason is :-). Some hard facts would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob
