    Looks like pretty tight seating area. It may just be the angle.

    Have fun with it. Each to their own is the way this hobby works but I really dislike the upswept look of the front of your frame.

    It just looks out of place.

    Your cowl patch panels overlapped like they are, can almost guarantee rust to form. Just sayin'. Hope your final fix is to butt weld them at final mockup.
