A quote is only a quote until you get the bill. I usually give customers a worse case scenario quote so they are aware on how deep the worn hole can go in a situation like this. Anything timing chain, cylinder head etc related on the b284 engine is a R&R powertrain operation.
Would you rather be quoted 10 hours only for it to be dragged out into a 25hr operation with a hefty bill you weren't expecting at the end of it all?
Are many internal parts for the b284 available from Saab? I would check into this before digging deep only to find out you cant source the needed new parts. Perhaps a known good used low mileage engine would be a better option than being exploratory with your current engine?
