The engine did not want to fit. Either the bulkhead sits a bit too far forward, or the engine mount is too long. The end of the exhausts should be right about even with the front of the panel.
(Gotta clean up that seam on the exhausts!)
I trimmed the engine mount...
Attached to the bulkhead and added some more wires.
Just a few touch ups needed on the bare wires and I can proceed!

Now some smoke has to pour out of the exhausts.
Strange those fit problems. Maybe the struts of the engine mount had been fixed in a wrong angle? Was a delicate point in the instructions of their quarterscale Würger.
