Hi
Call Kenny Saab Dismantlers tell him that Dave from the Bay Area referred you. Don't tell him you have a performance car for some reason prices elevate:-)) He's a good guy and may give you a special deal on a tranny or shipping? 1800-700-8656 916-635-9970
P.s What about swapping your parts to a nice 9000? I I have two that make good power and have had zero problems. 160K on the new one 260K on the old one. Don't they have better trannys? I had a old 99 and the tranny sucked
It kept blowing it apart the bearings were weak. The parsons write up before mine, is very sharp and detailed and knows the issues well. Is it worth dropping that kind of time and cash into a old car, It's like a good sexy girlfriend sometimes she has to get the boot no matter how she makes you smile :-)) It may be cheaper getting a nice used 9000 cheap adding your performance parts to it. Unless you have a ton of internal mods? 1700$ for a car or spend 3000$ for a performance tranny? I bet you can get a enigne and tranny for 500-600$ from a non Saab specialist?
Good luck.
Dave
