Different engines for Saabs

I have often mused possibility of transplanting either a Triumph Dolomite Sprint 16 valve or a Triumph Stag V8 into a Saab 900 (or using the Saab motor in a Triumph TR7 for that matter). For those that don't know the two Triumph motors I mention are very close relatives of the Troll lump. The Dolly Sprint motor in particular is very potent despite being normally aspirated. Does anyone know if you could transplant heads between the Saab and the Sprint? Totally hypothetical, but would be interesting.
