Default RE: GP Super Stearman

I've read all 719 posts extolling the virtues of gas engines - and I appreciate the suggestion - but the 120AX is on the bench already. Plus, for the one night a week I have a chance to fly, I don't go through glow fuel that quickly, and I just paid $3.49 a gallon to fill my car up today so gas isn't much far behind. It would take 27 gallons of gas instead of glow to justify buying a new gas engine - at my rate of flying t would take just under 7 years to pay for itself. That's a long time - thanks again but I'll stick to glow.

With that in mind:

Looking for a plane for an OS 120AX 2-stroke and thought about this one. Anyone know if it would fit in there side-mounted without cutting up the cowl?
