ever done an engine swap. The idea of using the Saab tranny, 4 or 5 speed, is absurd. The VW engine would already be attatched to a trans. The VW one. It would be far easier to cut and paste the VW trans into the 900 chassis than it would be to somehow attatch the VW engine to the Saab tranny. I would gladly come up with custom axles and a shift linkage before I tried to mate those two. I've never looked at this particular swap but if the engine would fit, width wise, into the Saab engine bay without gutting the Saab's spring towers it would be a bunch easier to leave the VM engine and trans mated.
