Status: offline 		 Thanks for the feedback vertical grimmace.  I am trying to get my hands on the dimensions of the Topflite FW-190 cowl.  I suspect you are right and the spark plug caps will stick out!

Status: offline 		I think that info is in one of the other threads. This topic was brought up. I know it will not fit in a D model of this scale. Although the A model has a larger diameter.

Status: offline 		Yep, thanks, I just read the other threads and it seems that the DLE 60 is too wide.  

Ramstein44, thanks for bringing the other threads to my attention!

Status: offline 		It is a shame that they did not angle the plugs back. Maybe if they would have used the jugs off of the new 35cc. They got those 2 engines right. The 55 RE and 35RE. Low profile is best. Especially for scale applications.
