How about accent 2003-2004. Can Beta 1.8 firmly fix in. Do i have to do a major modification on the mounting? how about A/C?

If your gonna beta swap and it sounds like you got a LC2 your gonna want a beta 2 either I belive a 2000-2003 Elantra 2.0 or a 2003 Tiburon 2.0. Not sure the year but I know for sure your gonna want a 2.0

i heard that the beta 1 can use the EVO 8 headers. i've seen a few used them on their accent with betas and tibs in cardomain. BTW is the Beta swap California legal?

the swap is still unsure to me. will it pass CA smog? will it pass referee inspections? is there an updated list for the swap yet?

Just had my 01 accent break a timing belt on the freeway on sat, soo...the head is pretty much gone. I was thinking of doin a 2.0 beta swap and going turbo, anyone have any suggestions?
