I’d be embarrassed to tell you how long I spent trying to un seize my steering shaft and fight getting it back in . I didn’t know how cheap they were at the time. I never looked honestly
Working outside in Arizona has got me staying in the house after work this time of year. My car is all apart awaiting re drilled wheel hubs so I can fit my new wheel/tire setup on the car.
The Saab 9-3 has the B207r engine I believe. As far as I’ve read the LSJ and Saab blocks are identical. I can get the entire Saab engine near me with the turbo on it for around $5-700. Do some looking into that route if your not wanting to do a rebuild but your still going to be swapping the...

I was able to buy a brand new piston earlier this year. It may have been the last one left though. Engine crate depot was able to source it for me at a dealer somewhere
