Mr. Dennis,

I'm scratching my chin gently.

What would be an appropriate late engine for this kit? I have OS .15, Norvel .15, Norvel .25, and a Thunder Tiger .25 as potential engines.

Thanks in advance.

I would go with the Thunder Tiger .25 myself.  You would need to make the motor mount spacing a little tighter.  Had I built the kit the OS FP/LA .25 seemed a good choice.

I built the Squaw in the first picture and it is powered by a period correct McCoy 29. It won Spirit of 52 at VSC a few years back. A 25 would be a good choice.
I flew a Veco Warrior with some success over several years with a McCoy 19, but on 52 foot lines.
