F-8E/J Crusader blueprints

Does anybody know where to find or have a good set of detailed blueprints for this bird? I scanned the internet high and low and I couldn't find a decent one, particularly in regard to the shape of the nose cone. Every 3 views I found have it perfectly circular, which is completely wrong judging by photos.

Thanks in advance!:wavey:

This russian website has a lot of good drawings. Don't just go by them though. Use photos as well. I.e. for our F-4B a lot of photos were used to correct the aircraft shape, which the otherwise excellent drawings had gotten wrong. Get a good research folder in place.
