Default ESM (KMP) Seafury

Just finished the ESM or KMP arf Seafury. With a Saito 120 for power, I had to add 0.6Kg(22oz) lead upfront to get it balanced. This brought the wingloading to 32oz/sq ft which is more than the recommended 27oz/sq ft. On test flying the tail seemed to be still heavy and I had to trim in more down elevator. With landing it came in quite fast and full flaps were activated. This caused the seafury to land, nose overing. Anybody with experience on this model and how to land this aircraft without scratching the cowl? [&o]
