Not sure if the V6 engine has a different (read: more expensive) transmission, but Eriksson is great for customer service after the purchase.
I had a problem with governor seals a couple months after the install. Since it came with a one year warranty, they sent me the parts and a check for $80, since I was doing the labor myself. 2 hours later, everything back to normal.
If you Google "Saab transmission" or "European transmission" you'll find a bunch of places that offer transmissions for somewhat cheaper than Eriksson does, but Eriksson has such a reputation here on the 9k board, that I couldn't bring myself to try someone without the recommendation.
Figure another $1000-1200 for the installation. It's a huge job!
However, if the rest of the car is in great shape, it can make sense to invest the money in the "devil you know" rather than a new (to me) car that is (somewhat/mostly) unknown.
Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
