Not sure if this will help or not. Look at the C6 Vehicle Technical Specifications for SWGT

thx, I may be able to get my hands on a c6 frame,

Based on the VTS sheet it looks like the extention of the wheelbase was done by a different rear cradle and upper control arms.

and taking 6" off the front of a C5 frame, then rewelding the cross beam back onto the frame.

To My understanding almost all of the C6 SWGT cars started with a C5 frame.
