Default Wing Loading, again

My god guys, I have this VQ P-40 (62 inch span) and the manual tells NOTHING about the Wing Area or Loading,

I know people put 20cc size gassers in this size War Plane,, I was told by the seller to put my Zenoah 20cc in it, well the Zenoah 20 weigh in at 41o.z. "less" Ignition Battery,
it's frustrating, and I feel like a child having to post and ask because half the people say "no,no, don't add weight" while the other half mount big heavy engines in these small .60 size planes,, one guy told me (quote) "62 inches is a lot of Wing Area",, what ??,, to me a 41o.z. engine plus Ignition Battery sounds like a lot of weight for a 62 inch Span wing shaped like a P-40's wing,

can I get comments

thanks guys

Jim
