Default How to mount a replica engine

Okay, I can't find this anywhere. I need some help how to mount a replica engine to the front of a big Gee Bee. It's 1/5 scale and there is a big hole. I have the replica motor painted and now, does anyone have any suggestions to mount it? I've seen it glued to the cowl, but that looks like it might be a big hard to line up just right. I was thinking of extending spacers from the fire wall and engine and mounting it that way. Will this stand up to the air pressure that some high speed passes will press against it? Any suggestions?
