Was trying to find the upper chain guide for my 1988 Saab 900 Turbo and I'm finding they are NLA. I've tried many of the usual spots in the US and EU.
It looks like they go by engine ID,
Engine ID: --K083010 (-1988
7505845
Engine ID: K083011-- (1989-
7585425, 30518277
There are plenty of the latter, but none of the former (7505845). It looks like the valve cover was changed a bit, and the newer chain guide is larger/wider and won't fit in the older engines.
I guess one could update their valve cover to a newer one from a 89-93, but was wondering if any other options out there, or if anyone has a good one!? : )
thanks,
-ryan
'88 900 Turbo
