The clutch-side half of the crank case is different for the "C" version.  There isn't room under the bar stud in that milled slot for the chain tensioner mechanism that the standard saw takes. 

I wasted a bunch of time trying it on a 270C.  If you look REALLY closely at the IPL you'll see it.   It's not obvious, though.  That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it.   ::)

Actually, the hand adjuster is not that bad.  I revolted at the thought of it.  But, it is actually pretty easy to use.  Trick is that it's easy to get lazy and not rotate the bar because the big gear has to be removed.  It's just a hand screw.  When I bought the saw the previous guy had never rotated the bar.  That  bar was hammered on the bottom.
