Nose weight on Ziroli P40?
Just wondering how much nose weight I can expect to add if I use an average gasser 3.7 or 4.2? The nose moment on the P40 looks a bit longer than some of the other warbirds, I wouldn't think it would need that much. Thanks!

Nose weight on Ziroli P40?
I needed to add about 1/2 lbs. to the nose using a ZDZ80 single....
I use lead shot mixed into a slurry using West Sytem epoxy that I then pour into the nose ring of the cowling.......This allows the weight to be placed as far forward as possible.
