Gents..
    I have a full fuselage design i want to also build in a profile version... my questioin is ... given the additional weight of the full fuse model.. should i extend the distance from wing to horizontal stab on the profile to keep it from possibaly being nose heavy??    AND...........is there a severe weight difference in the white insulation foam and the pink or blue more denser foam... I have a lot of the corning pink 2" dense foam.. thinking about cutting some cores from that.??  thanks in advance for your input..

You might consider reducing the distance between the engine and wing centerline to keep the vertical CG right when building the profile version.

I found that the colored foam (genuine Dow-Corning Styrofoam, Pink Panther, and the green Royal Dutch Shell ) is TWICE as heavy and twice as strong as the cheap, generic white foam.

I built a few planes with a plank of genuine Styrofoam.  I cut the cores a lot thinner, but still came out an ounce to the bad.   Unless you're into the battering ram style of combat, there isn't much reason to use colored foam.

What Mike said!  However, I have cut blue foam with the wire with no adverse efects, but I have heard from enough people in the know about the fumes from some colored foams to be very leary of doing so again.
And as stated above, the white is 1/2 the weight of the blue.  Don't know a thing about pink except that only REAL men wear pink shirts!

Some of the colored foam give off TOXIC or harmful fumes when heated.

One more thing about the heavy, colored foam: 

It takes A LOT more energy to cut it.   Your power source for cutting white foam may not "cut it". 

Even if it does, Al Gore might include you as a villian in his next global warming epic.
