Default scratch built KC-10

I am thinking about scratch building a KC-10, and I am wondering if anyone has or have seen drawings of a ducted fan and engine with dimensions? I prefer a 5 1/4" fan with an OS.91. So far every where that I have looked does not have any drawings. Any assistance would be appreciated.

By the way I am wanting to do this because I was a pneudraulic systems Technician stationed at March AFB, Ca from 1983 to 1988.

There was a company (PCM Models I think) that was marketing an L-1011 kit for a while, shouldn't be too far of from a DC-10. I believe they had it set up to use a single turbine in the fuselage and the engines on the wings were just static display.
