Fromwhat I am hearing, the LC accent tranny is weak compared to the tib tranny. Would it be possible to swap the tranny from the tib into the accent, since the tib motor bolts up to the accent tranny? I am thinking I will keep the 1.6L and make it a monster, so I want a tranny strong enough to handle it.

Theoretically yes, but nobody that I know of has tried it.

I believe he was talking about after he gets his motor built up a little bit, which is what I was planning on doing until I decided to just go with the whole Tib motor too.

But yes, I wouldn't recommend using the Tib tranny until you have your Alpha III motor built up a little more.
