you need to check the head to see if its warped and you should check the valve guides too .i like to have the head rebuilt when i do a head gasket.dont forget to fill the turbo with oil before you hook it up and i like to put new copper nuts on the exhaust manifold.dont put a stud back on with the old nut stuck on,it hurts your motor.you should also check the thickness of the head,it might have been shaved before,if you take too much off you will change the compression ratio .saab does have thicker head gaskets to fix this or they did the last time i checked anyway.you might find you need to change other things too ,like thermostat,water hoses and other small items.do it all while your there ,you,ll love tha results.
