well, thanks for all the imput and i may try not to do all the work
the car has has an intermintent low pressure oil light and ran low on coolant from a bad heater core, i was going to pull the sump on
it to check the main bearings
as for doing this work, i have been working on saabs for 10+ years
but this will be my first head gasket on a saab
since the timming cover has to come off to do the head gasket
wouldn't you want to at least replace the guides since they
are plastic?
i have done heads and timming chains/belts on alfa romeo's for 5 years
they are not very forgiving as the car will not start if the intake
cam is 2 teeth advanced, since this is one of 3 saab 9000's
that i have it being out of commision for 2 months is not an issue
thanks and keep the comments comming
