Hi! I've got an ´89 900 Aero with a 8-valve engine. This was an "el-cheapo" model that was available for a while here in Sweden. However, I've been thinking about changing the engine ti a 16-valve model. How much work would be involved in this? I've had the engine out of my 1983 99 and changed the cam-chain and that was not so very hard. Would this be much worse?! Also, I've found a brand new 16v engine, meant for a ´93 Aero, without the electronic boxes and intercooler. Will this engine work in my car with the existing intercooler and electronics from the old engine? Thanks! Regards, Fredrik Lindgren
