Default H9 Ultra Stick 120

I have a 120 Stick and I know the kit says that it will take up to a 4stroke 180...what I'd like to know is if I could use my Saito FA220 in this plane? Has any one seen this application before? I realize that my Saito 220 is about is about 5oz's heavier than the Saito 180 but the overall size is pretty close!
Any suggestions or ideas here will be greatly appreciated!

Rick I have even seen them converted to gas, we have guys that have MVVS Or Evolution 2.15s on them and one guy has a 50cc on one. The only thing that I suggest is go through all the glue joints on the plane while you are putting the motor on. after that go out and have fun, if people ask you why you can use my quote, "because I can", and remember throttle control is a great thing to learn early in flying, there is no such thing as too much if you have good throttle control.

You might need bigger wheels and maybe even taller gear for prop clearence. Iam not sure what prop a 220 needs 18 or even 20 inch. Everyone seems to worry about the stock tailwheel but we always used them. Its just used to hold the tail off the ground when the engine isn't running. As soon as you push the left stick up its flying. Have fun!
