The Viggen engine is just a regular old 9-5 Aero engine. The only thing that's different about it is the nimonic exhaust valves, which were shared with the 9-5 Aero, and really aren't all that special anymore. I had a machine shop in Seattle clean mine up and get everything rotating smoothly. I also had them replace the balance shaft bearings because I wanted to keep them. I know some people like to delete them, but if Saab went to the expense of putting them in the engine, I see no reason to get rid of them. It was also going in my wife's 9-5 Aero, and I didn't want it to vibrate any more than necessary.
