They are the triplex chains and sprockets in the primary drive end of the C900 gearbox.
Saab over the years used different triplex sprockets to give different transfer ratios - Turbo's use no.6 which gives approx 23mph/1000rpm in 5th, 7 gives approx 25mph/1000rpm and no.8 gives approx 27mph/1000rpm.
No.8's were only available in the UK and some other Euro markets - hence being rare/unobtainable in the US.
I had a no.8 set in my old 900 (which is back on my driveway waiting for its new keeper) which i sold last year and they give big power 900's serious crusing ability and top end comapred to no.7 and more so no.6.
The no.8's give the 900 160+mph legs on a stock rev limit!! - 27mph x6(000rpm) = 162mph!!
Pete.
