Default Rossi .81 ducted fan

I just picked up an old rossi .81 ducted fan engine. I was wondering if any of you guys have had any experience with one of these. I'm wanting to run a prop on it and stick it on a nitro models bobcat.

The thing doesn't have a drive washer at all, i'm not sure how i will get a prop on it. Any suggestions for glow plug, fuel, prop? Also it has 61 on the case but 81 on the mounting lug, I think its a .81 is that correct? its rear intake, rear exhaust and the housing is removeable too so I think i can run it backwards.

Anyways, just looking for advice, suggestions as I don't have any experience with a motor like this.
