OK, some pics on the Mini shell onto Mini Assassin question..

As you can see, the front mounts are a long way forward (hitting on the front of the shell actually) and wouldnt work. You could however use the rear ones and mount them on the front shock tower and that would work.

Which is good because the rear ones in the standard spot are also too far rearward and hit the rear window. But...if you used the front mounts here instead and bolted them directly to the upper chassis plate between the motor and the diff I think they'd be just about perfect too!

The wheel/tyre situation? Well thats one for you to work out. I tried the mini wheels again but they hit on the lower wishbone.
