Default mystery kit

Can anyone identify this plane??
60" WS
56" fuse
Airfoiled tail section
Recessed wing root pockets in the fuse
Saito decal on the cowl - 72 Saito installed. Engine mount has been narrowed slightly (previously) to accept this engine - cutout's in the cowl fit the 72 perfectly, but the main problem is it won't balance on the spar with the 72 under the hood. I'd need to add about a pound.
I'd like to know the manufacturer and the recommended engine.

Any questions please let me know - I have no idea how old the kit is but it appears to be an early laser cut ARF
Thanks, I appreciate the interest and the help.

I'd be going with a 90/91 4 stroke on that, and probably move those servos forward before I start adding weight,, good luck

Looks like a gold wing Extra 330 (I know Nitroplanes carries them, but I'm NOT POSITIVE gold wing is the manufacturer...)

thanks to both for the quick replies - it is a Gold Wing 330L and Nitroplanes carries it (too easy). From their web site, I got the info I needed.
Thanks again.
