I finished painting a Cuda body that I planned on putting on my Warhead EVO. I was going to drill the holes for the body mounts tonight and I didn't mark holes because they lined up with the premarked holes. While waiting for my battery to charge for my cordless drill I decided to do some maintanence on my Schumacher Havoc and I thought what would this body look like on the Havoc? It looks like it was made for it. Now how should I go about marking where the new holes should be? I really don't want to mess it up now by drilling in the wrong place. Any help would be great. Thanks, Steve

Thanks Trooper, I finally got some time and I put a dap of paint on the top of each body pin and slid the body on. The back 2 holes marked good but the front was a squiggly line. I checked the rear mark to make sure they were spaced right and square then drilled the holes. I was amazed it fit! I then added a dap of paint to the front posts, installed body on rear posts the gently lowered the front to mark the holes. I driiled the front holes and it fits like a glove. I still have a few details to work out like the rear exhaust is inside the rear bumper. I have an idea but just need to find or make the right exhaust tip then it will be done. Thanks for the help.
