cowl mock-up

So I got to work on the plane all day today and have the wiring about as far as I can go until I do some panting. I want to start working on the cowl next but don?t have the prop yet, all I know is I am going constant speed but not sure which one. I have read post here that some builders have used some kind of mock-up instead of the prop. So the question is if I don?t know what prop I will end up with can I still use the mock-up method? And if so what are the dimensions to use as far as the distance from the flywheel to the face of the mock-up and the diameter of the pretend spinner plate? I have a 8-A with a IO 360 200HP. As always any help greatly appreciated Matt.
