I really would like to use a front carb, rear exhaust engine due to a simple scale look . Also the exhaust system can be wrapped / insulated or cooled very easily. How many makes / companies are made that way. Or can I simply have the cylinder casting rotated 90 degrees with same power output ? These boats are for seniors. I have put a engine mounted electric starter on my Gizmotor.
1 member of the group will pay for what ever is necessary for all 5 guys to race together at the same time. Each member has a ability others do not. We are lucky that way.
At 80 I can not recall a lot of names of companies. Roger Newton plan is my boat with a Gizmotor 260. Will need a new bag tank. Can I use a car or plane metal or plastic tank to stop the bag rotting problem ?................These are really only sport running boats. No competition running intended.

Thank you for the help.
