Default UCD .46 "upgrades"

I plan to start building my UCD .46 next week. There are a couple at my field and I got some good ideas from the people who fly them. I wanted to see if anyone here had more ideas for making this ARF better.

1) I have a Saito .82FA how can I mount it without flooding the engine and keep it running reliably (i.e. pumps etc...)

2) are standard servos good enough for this plane?

3) should I reinforce the firewall and any portion of the tail section?

4) Is there any way to beef-up the main gear mounts?

5) what type of 'servo-reverser' works best for the elevator servo(s)?

6) Should I use the CA hinges or get some nylon ones?

7) is there anything else I need to 'fix' in order to get this thing to fly reliably and without nagging problems??

Thanks guys
