You might of course TRY, by all means, but I think you will find X
wanting on these old ones.

Why bother with G3/G4 cards for such old macs? If you want to run
9.2.2. its ok (if you have the money to squander). If you want to
run OSX seriously consider either a real G3 (the gray ones) or
(better) a Smurf or a B/W G3. OSX is slow on my gray G3, not fast
enough for quick stuff like graphics, games & some video stuff.
Think of it as putting a ferrari racing car engine into an old,
trusty dumptruck.
Keep the ancients, they are fun to play with, but stick to OS 9 if
you want to do something serious with them.

processor come out and run in an older 8500 while I get the 8600
running on some G3/G4 input thingie...? and does anyone have any
good suggestions for a G3/G4 card fot that thing?
