Falcon 9 with Merlin 1-D Vacuum engine

Maybe you know my thread "the SpaceX project". There I made a Falcon 9 replica which has 9 LV-T45 at the first stage and 1 LV-T30 at the second stage. This isn't correct, because the bell of the real Merlin 1-D Vacuum is much bigger than the bell of the LV-T30.Some other guys also made Falcon 9 replicas, and I saw some of them using a Skipper for the upper stage. But this is incorrect, too, because the Skipper has more than three times the thrust of a LV-T45. So I decided to make a new engine, the Merlin 1-D Vacuum, which has the bell size of the Skipper, 200kN of thrust and and a Vacuum Isp of 400. Let me know what you think.
