would it be possible to mod the revamped engine models from 1.9 into 1.8?

Do you mean the new skipper and mainsail model? Then- just copy paste the folder eg. liquidEngineSkipper_v2 under Squad/Parts/Engine from your 1.9 install into your 1.8 install. To remove the old models, go into the .cfg of the old part (liquidEngineSkipper.cfg under Squad/Parts/Engine/liquidEngineSkipper) and change from 'category = Engine' to 'category = none' and add the line 'TechHidden = true' after the 'TechRequired' line- this will just hide the old parts but will not delete old crafts because they had a missing part. I have tried this and works fine! I think this may be what Squad also does in each update to update the parts.

Alright, so I've done this and the new skipper shows up fine, but the new mainsail doesn't for some reason. I have no idea why this could be happening since I haven't touched the configs yet.
