The propeller and cowl needed to be reworked.  I rolled a strip of sheet plastic around the cowl and  built up the contour at the front to a slight
onion shape with Milliput.  The trailing edge was thinned, two holes for the exhaust were made, and a third for the starter crank.  The propeller
blades were removed from the hub and the shanks were built up to a larger diameter and sheet plastic was glued to the blade backsides
to give the blades a flat profile on the back.  Rings of tube were added to the hub at each blade base, a new front piston was added, and
three counterweights.  Then the blades were reassembled to the hub.  The back of the hub was drilled out for a prop shaft.
