Go with the Meister Fw 190 D9. The GT-80 fits the cowl fantastic.

Vailly Tempest - maybe! Need to measure the inside of the cowl.

I like your cowl hatch. Can you show us how that is locked down?

Status: offline 		I'm going to be trying to sqeeze one into a 91'' Zero, will probably be mounted verticle as opposed to horizontal & will require some mod's to the exhaust.
Got A CDI ignition unit for it which has dropped a lot of weight.
Thinking of starting a build thread on this one ...maybe.
Cheers Steff.
