Default Thrust tube size

Im building a Ziroli F9F Panther with a King 100G, anyone know what size thrust tube i would need, I know it will need to be about 20" long.

Thanks

Wren makes an augmented single wall thrust tube for the Ziroli Panther. I had one in mine. worked great. no heat issues at all, until it crashed and burned at MIch Jets in 2005. (Nothing to do with the tube LOL)

I am now using one in my F-16 with a wren 100K , also.

You can order from Wren USA or UK either one.

would a Wren 100k and a K100G not have the same thrust, 22+ pounds? thus use the same size pipe????? Just a suggestion.

about 2.375" expanding to 2.5" about 10" from bellmouth. 2.5 to exhaust outlet

Seems small but it works.
