My 99 base just had her engine swapped following head gasket failure. Put in a used, low mile 99 HOT engine plus new Viggen i/c. Just heard from the mechanic: she starts!!! The fellas fust need to put in new plugs, put the bumper back on. May be driving (as opposed to commuting or whatever it is that non Saab drivers do) by the weekend!!!
Following differences noted from base - HOT for MY99 engines (physical, I'm sure the ecu software is a little different, but you'll soon hear if a base ecu can effectively run a HOT engine!)
fuel rails look different
plugs in HOT are 'R' spec ngks
turbo, which I at first thought was different, is still a garrett. I'm assuming its the same one despite some external differences.
obviously, the i/c
