It's easier to simply glue the mount in without worrying about lining up the engine hook with the launch lug line. Glue in the mount then wrap and rotate the marking guide to the engine hook.
The instructions have you glue in the engine mount with 1/2" exposed.
Use the tail ring shoulder to press the mount to the proper depth.
Add a glue fillet to the rear centering ring using a Q-tip and a drop of glue. It'll take four or five drop applicationss of glue to get a fillet all the way around the body tube joint.
Here's a before and after of the molding seams on the nose cone.
The nose cone was pretty good but could use a little cleaning up.
Fold some 400 grit and sand down the recesses where you can see a raised mold line.
