over-engineered everywhere, highest quality materials used. As another post mentioned...it's massive for a 4 banger...even when they are completely trashed through abuse, poor maintenence or massive miles, they will often still run! I just pulled and replaced my 85 900T motor at 282K...it had a rod knock inherited from a visit to a Saab dealer 10 YEARS AGO...at 151K...it knocked for 10 years...and the hash marks in the bores are all still good! This motor will rebuild again, but I won't need it now for probably 10 years or so!!!
