And the idea is what? I think they are the same size dimentionally, but there are some nuances between them that make each model unique.

Well I was going to put all my m98 parts into a m98 customs body and i wanted to know if that will work, because i want a response trigger.

It's easier to get the 98 retrofitted by Tippmann.

Call Tippmann and tell them you need an RT put in your 98. They will tell you what to do from there.

Heck, they might even do it for free.

^^If they still do it. It's been a while since I heard of them doing it. But if you do put your M98 internals into the 98c, you will also need the 98c trigger/sear setup.

^^ As far as I know the only difference between the model 98 and the 98 custom is the way the trigger is set up. As far as the bolts, power tube, valve, etc. I believe it's all the same. I have a model 98, but the field I use to work at rented nothing but 98 customs, I never compared the markers side by side, but from memory I think the trigger is the only difference. Also I think the 98 custom shells might be molded slightly differently internally to allow kits like the rt trigger.

This is all correct. The M98 cannot accept RT, the 98c can. The trigger is the only thing stopping you from swapping the internals over.

the main difference between the 98 and 98C are the internals of the reciever halves.  all of the mechanicals are the same, except the triggers.  but the 98C has the slightly bored out spot for the RT (no holes though) and it also has the spot for the CO2 line if you put a regulator on.  the reason they made the 98C was to make it easier for the user to add all of those things, so that they did not have to send there halves to tippmann, or to a machine shop.  or use a dremel.
