Good Evening,
There are some amazing Tamiya Shermans in the Tamiya Build section of the Forum. I know some have used Mato Sherman hulls to great effect but if you peruse further, you may find the info you are looking for.
regards,

Hi I did what your doing. If you know someone with a Bridgeport Mill they can place the holes where you need them. I have some pic of my tank on the site. Good luck Warhawkone.

Canned Heat did a conversion... but wasn't on a tamiya..

http://www.rctankwarfare.co.uk/forums/v ... 22&t=11626 I would think it's about the same..it just depends on your mounting points

GOOD LUCK
