Do you have any idea of what is pushing that RedBull P-39?
Without the original Allison V-1710-75/77 + Turbo-Superchargers
labeling it a P-38L doesn't quite seem right.

…er that was meant to be "RedBull P-38"

Also, the boom noses are from earlier P-38s.

Yup! The boom/nacelle chin intakes have the smaller opening and swept
back look of the P-38E through to P-38H and the "Lightning MkI &
MkII". The P-38J & P-38L had the large chin intake for the new
intercoolers.

Whatever. She's still a thing of beauty, even with the tacky trademarks.

Yup! here are a couple without the modifications. Note the fat chin intake.
