[ChrisS1]

Possibly

Wouldn't have mattered which N/A I'd bought for that Tom; I already have one of your heaters on my desk at home (came from Steve A's car).

Coming to a classifieds near you soon...

Yes but you would need some pistons to

[Denthrax]

Yep. Guess I will need some pistons and cams for a 2.2 conversion then.

 

 

 

Damn just getting the car resprayed.  This is going to be some costly weeks

what are you guys planning to do with the coil pack/cover?

[vocky]

what are you guys planning to do with the coil pack/cover?

I have just ordered three of the central alloy covers - 12787627, the coil packs will need modifying to fit the saab cam cover and the alloy covers will also need modifying to accept the coilpack amplifier 

 

Not really sure why the new engines never came with them 

[rik]

yeah it's a mess.. my temporary solution:

can we not just fit the saab coil packs that were designed for this engine?

if so maybe worth seeing what price they are from same place if they have them

nah they are very different

 

2.2 = wasted spark (2 coils) with an electronic thing called compression sense ignition to find cam phase for injectors

2.0 = coil on plug (4 coils) with a cam sensor to find cam phase for injectors

Doesn't the Z22SE rocker cover fit on the engine?

[vocky]

Doesn't the Z22SE rocker cover fit on the engine?

it can, but you need z22se cams or cut down the LSJ cam, then make one of these and modify the bearing housing

want

[vocky]

want

want what ? 

[vocky]

and you also need to modify the saab cam cover like this

 

 

and the coilpack like this (the amplifier is missing but you get the idea), you also need to extend the springs inside the coilpack extensions by approx 10mm

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: please remember you cannot use z22se spark plugs in your saab engine, the z22se are taper seal plugs and the saab head uses flat washer seal plugs
