Ok I'm either going to build a 360 laptop or put it into a mini-ITX case.

I can't find the dimensions of the components though.

Tell me what parts and I will measure them out for you or I can just link you to a tut on how to make the laptop.
Ps you can only extend each wire,componenten a max of 6 inches.

i do have a question about this.

when you take apart the 360 there are some very long pins that have sensors on them.
if you don't put them back in the right spots and make sure they are tight enough the 360 will just continue to give error messages.

how do you accomplish keeping the sensors from triggering error codes and not using the screws that connect the top and bottom parts of the  360?

I'm 99% sure the sensors are only located on the xcalmp area. I believe there under the gpu and CPU when you replace them with new heatsinks you should be good.
Also I recommend you go with a japer unit just To make sure you don't get any odd red rings.

Mainly I wanted to know what the highest point was., but know i'm thinking that I'll just build the laptop to the dimensions of a non flattened 360.
