wanting a 1/8 onroader, options

[junkman]

Wanting to build a 1/8 onroad car. Really want a inferno gt2, mainly just for the more scale appearance, but just can't fork out the cash to go that route. Wondering how close say an 8ight buggy, with an 8ight t chassis plate would come out wheelbase wise to fitting a gt2 body, mainly because I already have several losi 1/8's. Also are the shocks and towers a lower profile, widths from what I understand is just the same as standard 1/8 scale buggy. I have found a few inferno gt's for reasonably price, I wonder if the chassis plate from a gt2 is a straight swap. If you have one to compare with an 1/8 scale buggy, or have any input, please post it up. Thanks.
