Yes, but I cut the front motor mount loose and let the engine hang down. Just be sure to mark the bolt positions in the mount or you will bind the mount when you put the car back together and cause excessive engine vibration in the car. I use some black spray paint on the mount and make sure the bolt line up with the paint.
There is also a special tool to hold the crank pulley, but I guess you could work around that. Also, you should always replace the crank pulley bolt after removing it (per WIS). Torque is 74ft/lbs and then 75 degrees of bolt rotation.
The front cover on a 9-3SS is much easier to do then on the Saab motors. It is just a cover plate that does not attach to the cylinder head. You will need a gasket and an new front crank seal would not be a bad idea while you have the cover off.
Good luck,
Steve C
