Default RE: Nosen P-47 Build Marathon

More pics to come in the next day or so. I have started to fabricate a servo tray and also install the pull pull cables to the tailwheel. But the main focus now is to get the motor mount box made and install the motor. I have a Q-100 with stock magnito ignition. I need recomendations here.
1. Leave it stock on magnito only.
2. Install a jump start system from CH Ignitions.
3. Install a complete electronic ignition system.
I will have to fab my own parts for the sensor mount and flywheel if I go to any aftermarket electronic ignitions. I haven't found a "drop in system" for the Q-100.
I do not know how difficult the motor will be to start by hand. It does have a compression release which makes it a lot easier to crank over. It had a spring starter at one time, but it is gone now. Please give me some feedback on this.
Thanks
