Can I move my iPhone 8 to an iPhone 10 chassis?

Solution
The shape of the board is different for certain. The wiring to the display and other components is certainly different. So assuming that you had the extremely expensive machinery to produce these boards and the skills to redesign the boards and reprogram the firmware (as well as enough time to do it) in theory you could. Effectively, you would be building a new phone altogether.

Bottomline, it's a definite NO.

Just wondering since I’m putting an 8 back together anyways, and because why not make it look like a 10 if I could have ;)

Well the reason why I ask is because I’ve seen iPhone six to 8 chassis kits which use adapters inside the iPhone 8 chassis to fit the iPhone 6 components. Maybe the 10 is too recent for this to be the case for it.
