Hedd, the ones I looked at and my Replica are all on genuine short chassis. My guess is that, at least in the case of the CC bodies, the dimensions are not exactly the same as a genuine EA Sports. They are close, but the CC body appears to have a slightly shorter floor before it turns up at the firewall. As well, the raised feet on the Ulster cc put the flywheel cover higher than on a standard car. For instance, if I were to put my genuine Ulster engine into the CC body, the g/b would be too high and foul the tunnel and front cover. One thing I had to do on my Rep was to fabricate and install a new tunnel and front cover. Compound Curvature bodies, at least ones from the 1990s like mine, have a tunnel which is 1/2 inch narrower than what is found on a genuine Ulster.
