how high are you reving it?

[XPNiklas]

Hi

On the race track it goes to 6400 on second gear. On the road it does the same in third :-)

I have chaned the spedomiter to a SAAB 93 speedo that goes to 140 km/h instead of 120 but to no avail it over speeds it any way :-D

[slooter3]

whats the maximum rpm?

and whats the highest u can rev her before she blows?

[XPNiklas]

Hi

Maximum rpm is about 6500 as it is tuned now but I have a new exhaust design for this season that will lift the engine about 500 rpm.

I have new rods now so I do not know the lipit. I broke an original rod at 6000 rpm pasing a Pointiac trans AM that was blocking my whay but it was almost worth it ;-)

Is this your 93 Niklas? I have some pictures for you on the Kinnekulle ring last june (and an A3 spread in our clubmagazine btw)

[XPNiklas]

It is my 92 yes, My 93 is not ready yet ;-)

Nice to hear about your clubmagazine.

Thats lovely music

To all the "stupid little car" commenters...

1955 was the last year this particular model was produced, it was also the first year of the now famous small block Chevy.

Please notice the figures of this Saab are real hp, not the SAE norm!

If You bought a Chevy in -55, the "265" gave You 162 hp SAE (Like 130 real hp).

If souped up like this Saab, it would have been about 345 real hp! Let´s say about 400 hp!

Very few of these early chevys ever produced such power!

i enjoy the creepy stare from 0:42 - 0:47 LOL

[SchuyTV]

these things seem dumb to me... they make them with such small engines, its be cool if they made a 150-200bhp 2 stroke cause it would actually be competable with other cars

[gtr500able]

it sounds like its higher rev but think thats cuz the 2 stroke engine

[XFolf]

Gotta love that 2-smoke sound.

@McLarenMercedes

2cv never had 33bhp, only the high compression dyane and ami had 33bhp (they were alsoalmost forced induction with the cooling fan pressurising the inlet tract!!

@RastafariPoet 50 years old? Saab 92 has won lots of rally against much stronger cars, like Monte Carlo etc...

And the sound at a rally trac is great!!!

[andjack]

@jb0177 your lawnmover has not won Monte Carlo Rally and isn't about 50 years old. Saab 92 has...

@tpvalley rev limiter on a Saab 92, two stroke engine?

The Saab v4 is actually a Saab 96.
