I Thank everyone for all of the input on the T33. Some really good advise on this particular Jet. After looking at mine a little more in depth. I believe this one to be the latest and greatest kit for the turbine version. It does not seem to have the undercamber on the fuselage. Also the wing tank mounts are aluminum tubes into the wing with carbon fiber rod. This structure gets glued into the wing tank then is held in place by a single screw through the wing into the carbon fiber rod. The front hatch does have the latch on it as well. A little bit of fill at the wing roots and I am close to primer.

I also started the cockpit and hatch cover.

I looked at the plans and the CG is 3.5 inches behind the leading edge at the root where the wing meets the Fuselage
