Speed plane for OS 108 and OS160

I have an OS 108 and OS 160 laying around, looking for a decent speed (>100mph) plane. I've gotten good kicks from Patriot XL and Cermark F16p type of birds. Wondering if any co makes a bigger propjet in that class??? Any good input will be appreciated.

How about an AK Models SU-27 Flanker?

It's designed for a 90 size 2-stroke.

I like the Flanker suggestion, but will the big OS 108 fit in the nose and need a ton of tail weight to balance?

The 108 will fit in most of the 60 size mustangs (or other warbirds for that matter). Similar to why cyclichardover did with his Voodoo and the ST2300. With the right prop, that 108 will make it move quite nicely. Weight and balance will be reasonable.
