I have a Zenoah G-62 - no electronic ignition.
Would this engine fit the cowl of the Top flite Giant P-40 warhawk?
Is it going to be overpowered?

I have a Zenoah G62 - magneto type. Does it fit in the cowl of a P-40 Giant scale?
What about power, is it going to be overpowered?

I have a G-62 in my P-40 and it fits fine, stock ignition. I think I used a slim line muffler. flies it great good power.

Wilbur, when installing the G-62 is the original air intake of the P-40 the only existing air intake? Did you need to make any hole or adaptation to the cowl? Is the engine fully concealed in the cowl?
I believe the pictures will show it.

It's a bit of a handful to land but looks great in the air.

Mine has full flap throw and about 5% flap-to-elevator mix and lands at a crawl. It is a very slow and gentle plane to land.
