i'd use a 1998/99 car to begin with
with a 95/97 car you can't use the 1.5 tranny motor mount are not in the right spot,it can be done by changing the transmission to a later (or tibby)one and changing other mounts but still simplier with a 98/99 car
in y case i have the beta transmission andi like this "set up" longuer gearing should be better for a F/I set up too
BTW if using an accent tranny the stock tibby clutch can't be use (alpha = push type,tibby = pull type)

Well the younger the car the more money I'm gonna spend on it and I think it would be simpler to just get the car to a welder to get that mount welded on.
I'm hoping to pick up one for under $500, put a beta1 motor, tibby tranny and axels.
Another question. Do x3's have return fuel system like tibbies?
DEniss, IM me when you can a chance. I wanna talk to you man.

X3 have the same fuel system then the tibby,
fuel pump is the same unit also
actually, i could send you pre-made motor mounts (the ones that needs modification) this would make your swap much easier

yup,i tought i was clear enough ;-) (nothing harsh here)
if you need info just PM me,
it's not a hard to do swap, but like i said, swap is easier on the 98/99 models
for the 95/97 a few other parts are required
BTW 95 are the worst..
the car isn't OBD2 while all beta are obd2
even in N/A mode this should make you a very fun litle car, just keep the sleeper theme and blow away a few mustang/camaro ;-)
