Higline bodywork, height from bottom of chassis rails to back edge of nosecone?

Does anyone know what this height is? Need to know so I can see if I have a hope of making this fit!

Cheers

I have Luego Velocity bodywork which is higher to fit my ZX9 under. Is this what you mean?
Is the measurement you want from the bottom of the top chassis rail or the bottom of the bottom chassis rail?

measurements for a selection would be handy. needs o fit a book locost chassis.

Either measurement would do, one is just 13 inches more than the other.

Just need to compare engine height.

Okay matey. What I measured is the bonnet at the front, where the nose sits and at the rear where it meets the scuttle.
You should be able to run a string at these heights and it'll give you an idea whether the engine will fit underneath.
This is Luego Velocity bodywork so the front is 25.5c.m. and the rear is 30c.m. These measurements are from the top of the rail upwards.

okay, anyone know of any bodywork thats higher than leugo stuff?

How about GTS?

The rear height is fine as Id imagine it is for everyone, but Im short a bit at the rear edge of the nosecone!

Cheers

They're probably all waiting for them to be delivered still (that'll stir them up )
