Thanks to everyone who answered re widening fuselage.I think we can sort it out from here.
And I gather KR1 was a bit tail heavy so if we move the firewall ahead a couple inches on our KR2S we will be within limits; and if we widden a couple inches we will be in familiar company. As I go through the KRs described on the webb and see the engines being used I wonder how many have some lead in their tails.

You are going to have more frontal area anyway and will need room on the firewall for a larger engine. I would think that, that would take care of the bending issues.
