Status: online 		G-38's should be a good match.
I've got two of them in my present build of a Yellow P-38 that's a 101" WS.
They're simple and reliable and cheap.
Chief sells them for $290.

Status: offline 		Zach,

Go with the 38s!!!! Get a couple of (small) 4 blade props with it. You will like how it fits in the cowl. Rear exhaust is fantastic. Come by my garage and pick one up for test fitting. It's layin on the work bench.
