Chad, I was wondering if you took Brian Taylor's 83" Spitfire VIII and put a Griffon engine nose on it would you have a Seafire XV? My reasoning is as follows The fuselage for the MK V and the VIII are nearly identical and the Seafire XV is based on the MK V fuselage with a Griffon engine. At least that was what my reasearch showed but I'm no Spitfire expert. So I figured you could reverse engineer Taylor's Mk VIII into a MK V and add the appropriate cowl?? I had considered going that route at one time.
