This is a really cool project. In fact, as I know is a common practice swap the fox stile suspension in favor of the S281 for a better handling.

Very interesting. I'm surprised it's taken this long for someone else to make one of these.

With the right sanding and filing you can make the chassis fit like it was made for this kit.

As one that's done this project... I'll tell, you it's much easier to just use the Saleen engine compartment, though.

I'll be watching...

Edit: By the way check your wheel bases carefully I think the Saleen chassis needs to be shortened by 1-2 mm... IF I remember correctly.
