I tend to knock things up in sheet lead, easy to form and stretch. Then
I use the part I've knocked up as a mould for a GRP copy. Tend to use
phenolic resin around the back of the engine, its fire resistant. Not
easy to get hold of in small quantities though.
I rarely have the discipline to do this, but I always say " one change
at a time, then you have a chance of seeing if its better or worse" ?;-)
