I've done a couple and if you are a professional and do it a lot, I suspect 3 hrs is doable w/o the flywheel.
All day job for me, goofing around finding the right tools. Getting the spacer ring into the fingers etc. Then trying several different ways to bleed it.
I think most shops quote the book time out of some database they have, then try to beat it by a lot. This in an average time for an average mechanic with the range of unexpected drama included.
On this car if you have someone skilled locally, it is probably well worth it. Mostly you have to do all the work yourself these days where I am. A non Saab guy will probably not even know which end of the engine the clutch is!
Would encourage you to do it yourself and bond with the car ... the steering rack was a bit too much bonding for me (2X as well).
