[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dehusman</i> <br /><br />GP 35 vs 38 : Different truck centers, different fan arrangement, different hood door arrangement. Probably different trucks. With so many decent s of each out there.[/quote]<br />To add to that, the GP35 has a turbocharger exhaust stack, while the GP38 was normally aspirated, and had a small exhaust stack in front of and behind the dynamic brake fan (or where the dynamic brake fan would be located).<br />[quote]QUOTE: SW1200 vs 1500 : again two completely different engines. Different grill shape, different hood shape, different cab shape, different steps area, different frame shape. About the only thing you can share beteen the two is the trucks.[/quote]<br /> Yeah, this will be VERY difficult to do, since the SW1200 has that flared hood arrangement, while the SW1500 has a narrow hood the width of the GPs, in addition to all of the other differences.[/quote]
