Nice built and it was an honor to be able to help and make you happy.

If anyone needs this part, please let me know

As the maker of the kit maybe I can answer this question. You are correct in thinking that the Tamiya engine is oversize. The Ebbro versions are closer to being accurate.

I will keep you up to date.
