I'm planning to build a IDF "Tamar" sherman (1/35) and need to know if the conversion set....CMK HB058 75mm M2 gun w/late mantlet & MG sheild.... will work and which kit would be the best to use

You'll need DML #6548 and a handful of parts from DML # 6313. From #6313 you'll need the tracks, sandshields, early gun tube, gun mount, and blanket box. You could potentially spend a lot more $ with am. Both kits are now in the $30-35 range. With the leftover parts you can build "Meir". You get two early IDF tanks right ootb and spend the AM money on the sabingamartin tool/ stowage boxes and decals then you'll be set
