Hi Danny,

Regarding the scale model..I am currently working on the GM270, bellhousing and gearbox, as well as the axles. Most of the rough cab parts are done and chassis as well. The basic structure of the rear body is there, but nothing done on the interior yet and lots of detail still to be done on chassis and cab.

By the way.....I have talked to a few (former) C60X owners who ensured me the engine was longer...which resulted in the grille needing a spacer....so, I was surprised to find the 270 block to be the same lenght as a 216....if I measured correctly. Also, I understand the C60X uses the stock Chev gearbox.....so, is the bellhousing this much longer leading to the engine being more forward ? and new mounts being used....or is it a bigger radiator and or different fan that leads to a lack of space up front ?
