pics of v8 towers and i6 towers

I need to proove a guy wrong. He swore up and down that in my two 68's that the two differnet towers that are in each of them were both i6 towers. I tried to explain to him that this truck the "CE" 68 was set up for a v8 and a v8 came out of it, but he said that it was shimmied up and rigged. I asked how is that possiable when this truck had a v8 a v8 came out of it and it is in the forward v8 position and the CS68 had the straight towers, rear position and has an i6 sitting on them and he still firmly believed that both were i6 towers. Help guys pics. later tonight i'll post mine and help confirm what i think is right the CE68 has towers that angle back and are in the forward position.
thanksswj

There is 3 1/2" (plus or minus 1/8")diff between the i 6 position & the sb v8 position. I am not sure the tower shots are real good, but here is a sb in i 6 position. http://community.webshots.com/user/hotrodhorn crazyL
