I have used it, put a ring around the center and place the spark plug wires, then use the your shading talent, it will be a nice engine.
On the contrary,if you want I can offer you 4 Airfix Stirling engine for this Academy Texan engine (a big deal!)

Great work. I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the Academy kit. I have posted some T6 engine pictures here - http://uamf.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=251&t=7592; .

All the best.

Beautiful photographs Greg.
Very useful.

You have cleared many doubts I have.
