Response to yes I plan on doing engine work

That basic engine design has been race tuned up to 400+ Bhp by FIAT. Very capable, but depends on how much $$$$$$ one wants to spend on it. Performance parts can be an issue, but that depends again on your goals and budget.

Use the Lancia transaxle as the stock X transaxle won't deal with the increased power too well and likely develop problems. As power goes up, the need for a limited slip diff could be another issue to deal with.

Much to consider here.

IMO, it's better and more cost effective to use a modern drive train like a Honda K20A for a host of reasons including performance parts availability and tune ability.
