As a side note, the story is not over yet, because there's an engine-less Yak-23 left over, and I wonder what it might look like with a piston engine grafted to the empty nose?

A Yak-9? ;D

No, that's a totally different airframe. The Yak-23 is pretty small, and the landing gear will have to be modified (tailsitter), too - I think that this will turn into a Reno Racer, because any serious piston engine looks oversized on the small aircraft! But it's IMHO worth a try.  :mellow:
