What numbers are you looking for on the juice?
I have no idea what it should make. But it should be fun atleast lol
I have been looking for a low mileage Saab 97x Aero with the 6.0 LS2 for a while, but they are very hard to come by.
The exterior and interior of the SAAB's are so much nicer than the Trailblazer SS equivalent.

I know where there is one fs but they want 14k for it. Has 100k looks clean

thats the one. sucks my Black 97x just got smacked by a deer sat night. might be totaled ugh.
Yeah it looked clean for the price! Oh man! sorry to hear. Now you need to get this modded one up and running.
yup tell me about it. thank goodness for insurance. its not too bad. just more of a headache then anything. and thankfully the airbags didnt blow and my wife is safe. ill spend some time during the week to get as much done as possible. ran into a weird issue. apperantly the 6.0 has a hole in the block for a dipstick and you need to block it off and use the dipstick hole thats in the oil pan. so I plugged the hole in the block and either I need a new factory dipstick but im prob just going to order one of those lorcal ?? ones that flex easy to get around the ac unit.
used thanksgiving morning well I think. got the trans bolts in, intake manifold. headers tightened, ac, front drive brackets, alternator, power steering, engine harness ran and plugged in uptop, still need to do bottom though. still have a lot to do. dredding the starter, torque converter bolts still.
things still need done.
TC bolts
starter
harness to knock sensors and grounds
driveshaft to front dif
center cross memeber
run trans cooler line to cooler (waiting on the lines to show up)
lorkar dip stick (ordered today)
coolant hoses
electric fans and shroud
run Efans and trans cooler harness
Ypipe
fluids and filter
ugh so much to do.
