Years ago I did some work on a diorama of "The battle of Wolf359" for a friend's Card and Game shop. I got most of the ships built but not modded with battle damage yet when he lost his shop in his devorce. But I have pictures of the USS Melbourne. I changed the name and NCC# on D-WHALE's fixed 1/1700 version to make it the Melbourne.
I see now what you mean about the nacelle length. I think that it needs to be lengthened another 1/4 of the existing length. That should be about the right visual length.
The length of the nacelle as built in 1/1700 is 6 5/16" or 160mm
