Default BAE Hawk Inlet

Hello, I have an issue with my Red Arrows Bae Hawk. When I sit the turbax fan in the jet for mounting, I noticed that the intake duct does not fit tightly around the front of the fan.
When the fan is centered in the duct there is approx. a 1/4 '' gap (maybe a little less) all the way around the fan shroud. Does anyone have a fix for this problem?
Should I build a balsa ring a 1/4 '' thick and glue it inside the intake duct so there will be no gap between the shroud and intake duct?
Has anyone seen this problem before?
Thanks for your help.
David
