Timing/Blance shaft chain/tensioners, cost?

Not long after my 94 SE connecting rod diagnosis at a low 127k, a friend of mine at work with a 95 SE had his car diagnosed with the dreaded timing chain disease at 155k. Any idea how much one could expect to pay to have this done? Indie? Dealer price? How about a source for Saab engines? If this was a Chevy 350 V-8, I could by a crated shortblock or whole engine on a Sunday afternoon for peanuts.
This will make two RIP Saab NG 900's around here in just a week, and there are only 5 or 6 NG/9-3's in town with a metro population of 450,000. Maybe we can just make one good car by cannibalizing parts?
