David Glen documents a Mark 9 build that should give you lots of useful info.

Can also get the E Book copy of Paul Monfortens book. It's about 20 bucks bit covers almost everything you need.

Both of these have been very useful in my current 1/24 scale build.
I just got the 403 kit this week, and will be building a static display model working off ideas from David Glens builds. Wing center section, and cockpit formers will need extensive mods, but can be done.
I also have his book on his mark 1 build. It was pricey but is worth it.
