At first I was hoping all of my parts would get in ASAP so I could get everything together this weekend... Now, after all the little things that have needed attention, I'm glad I don't have everything I need yet, also I'm glad to have another vehicle to drive while she's up on the stands. I've replaced my rear motor mount, both ball joint boots, rear main seal, shifter shaft input seal... stripped out ONE of the 18 oil pan bolts so had to drill it to get the oil pan off, cleaned the screen, I have a new oil tube pick up o-ring that will go in with it...Not to mention that ONE 18mm bolt on the subframe that whipped me for a couple of days (new bolts on order too!).. cleaning, cleaning and more cleaning. I picked up new hex head bolts for the oil pan which are hard enough to find enough of in the metric M8x1.25... I have the axle input seals on order from thesaabsite.com Impressive oil pan in these cars too, never seen anything like it as stock equipment! My flywheel is freshly resurfaced and I should be getting my Viggen pressure plate and performance disk in the mail from Jak tomorrow. As far as the engine support... Unistrut, If you have a "Graybar" in your area, they'll have it. It's working out great, I'll just turn the nut to lift and lower the motor...very easy. I hope everything goes back together smoothly for me and for you too! And as far as good places to get parts, usually between eeuroparts.com and thesaabsite.com, there's a great deal... and they both ship very fast! Just don't get in a hurry and take care of all the little things that are much easier to get to while you're at it.

I'm going to call Jak this week and see about ordering up the T25/28 turbo... :) Going to have to test out this new clutch!!
