Engine replacement [saabnow]

Subject: Engine replacement
=================
Hi
We just wrecked our manual - non turbo - Saab 900
91-92 200K miles!

The car was fine standing still on tick over but when
moving off there was a crunching sound from the
engine/trans, this happened about 10-15 times.

Finally, after moving it about 10 feet on the driveway
there was a final crunch and the engine oil and
transmission oil dumped on the drive nice mess! (the
engine was off by this time). I think that somthing
must have droped in the gears or differential!

The car is in good body condidion, so I am thinking of
repairing it so .....A few questions.

Any Idea what happened - it was droping out of second
gear for about a year!?

Am I going to need a transmission or engine and
transmission? Im not sure how the two are linked!

Has anyone got a low millage transmission or engine
transmission or who should I contact to get one from?

Any tips on changing the transmission/engine... I have
a workshop manual..but wanted some feedback!

Regards ..static
