Off to a great start! I see you have used my recolouring for the engines and yes of course you should use a strip instead of the tab. Looks much better. I also did that myself. I just kept that tab on because it was originally part of Greelt's model.
Your result looks really good. It really would be a pity to hide it all behind aluminium foil. But, as David said, that's how they flew. I used a bead for the J2 engine. maybe it was a tad too big but it looks the part. I had to paint it and put a tiny little paper dot on the hole to seal it off. (and I built it in 1/96; I made only one when I made my 'wet orbital station' version of Skylab a hundred or so years ago.)
I still have this dream to build the Saturn V in 1/96 with Greelt's parts but I want to make it as a cut open view model so you can see the insides. And I still need to figure out how to do that.
