Better off with the Proto 2000 shell - it's just about dead on.  Easy 
high nose job with the Hi-Tech kit.  The hassle is dealing with the 
6:1 geared, too-tall Proto drive.  I put mine on Atlas drives, but it 
takes a bit of work to fit them, and I had to mill .050" off the 
bottom of the frame to allow the P2K fuel tank to fit properly.
