Many of us do know that it basically is a GM Ecotech engine in the Saab 9-3 from 2003 and up.
But it is not as simple as that. Some things has been tweaked and shaped to Saab's specs so for instance, the valve cover gasket is not the same between the two.
I bought a GM valve cover gasket since they come with the 16 rubber cushions for all bolts which Saab's does not and noticed that the shape around camshafts were not the same so I could only use the rubber cushions.
Other things are the same though like water pump and CKP sensor.
