Just curious, does the interior lip of the cowling on the real McCoy extend back that far ? It looks like it would be hard for cooling air to reach the upper part of the cylinders if so.

 

As a matter of fact yeah. They are unusually deep cowl lips if left in the from factory config:

It is stunning as ever. Great work and I love the detail in those engines, its incredible work. Keep it up. 

 

In relation to her weigh in, did you see the release HPH put up with and additional 2k resting on the back of a built model tigercat, all beacuse the question was posed as to whether the undercarriage was up to holding the weight.
