I wanted this job done right so I went to one of the better Saab specialists in DC. Paid $3K, included changing out the timing chain and all associated parts but everything else was fine according to the shop. No need to plane the head, nothing cracked etc. which was a little surprising because it overheated once (my fault, long story). Engine has been running great since.
I've had other stuff go bad since - AC, water pump, a little rust but the main parts of the engine have been solid.
