Thanks for the advice. Sorry I didnt make it clear but I plan on using the RRC's chassis and cutting it down. My trail toy is an 89RRC with a rusty body hence the need for something different. The issue is that unless you move the motor back in the RRC chassis it will sit in the front of the engine bay and if you move it back the oil filter needs to be moved to a remote location and it looks like the power steering is going to be in the way of the rad. Instead of going through all that, I just plan on using the D90 hood/grill. It is only going to be a toy so I need to keep it simple. Thanks again. Gordo
