Tom, I was not aware that adding KC’s to the 370’s was a common conversion.

I have no idea how common it was, I am sure it was an option authorized by Gilbert.  I believe the side frames were replaced also a vertical section was cut from the front (what’s it called?) end to allow for the knuckle coupler to extend past the body and negotiate curves.  And again if memory serves me, the new side frames are black rather than silver.
