Buying an MX-3... BTP???

[PSE95]

hey, I am a probe owner and I want a bit of a smaller car and the MX-3 really appeals to me. However I want a four banger but I want to put a BTP engine in it to give it a little kick. I would be doing this myself (with some friends helping) but I would like to know who has done this and how I can contact them. I have seen many websites with the ZE swap but none w/ the BTP! Please post as much info as you can. I am posting to learn and with an open mind. Thanks (I did search) -JD
