If the Kasten tracks are the ones with hollow guides then I would use the Kasten tracks because I personally do not like the Fruilmodel white metal ones. The Aber sets are probably better. I would not use the Eduard PE zimmerit because you can do a much better job with putty. After a few minutes of practice you will find zimmerit easy and it is more rewarding to make it yourself, not to mention cheaper (free actually). The zimmerit on the Sturmtiger was left over from the rebuilt Tiger hull, you may have to cut away some of the zimmerit around the big bolts they drilled through the original Tiger hull too, I don't know if this is simulated on the Eduard PE or not.

Paul.
