Default RE: Yellow Aircraft P-40 Engine?

Craig,

That is great to hear! I wasn't sure if the tubeing idea would work or not. Always nice to have the confirmation from someone who has turned the idea into reality. Ooh....I got final confirmation from my "Financial Advisor!". "AC 2001, you are clear for take off".
Separate question. Since this will be my first in-depth composite build, I am going to take some serious time with it. Therefore, I won't get around to the engine mounting for some time. Is it possible to mock up the engine placement for the scale exhaust? Or should I wait a while? I spoke to Kelvin from Keleo Creations, (By the way, the guy is one of the nicest people I have ever spoken to. Fantastic person. No doubt about it!) [8D] and no one has mocked a ZDZ 80 up for him yet. Soooo, he will need me to do this before he can send one out. I'm not familiar with the yellow kits, and I don't know if this is even possible, or adviseable prior to being at that particular point in the build.
