New to Gas, help me choose an engine for:
I've been puttering through the gas forum for about a month, and learned some, and am confused some! I like to give gas a go this summer and decided on a Seagull 120 size Decathlon http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=SEA2125
Any good recommendation on which engine to choose? I'd like to stay with the China imports like the Aerovate, What's a good US vendor that will have it in stock?
17 - 20cc size range is what I'm thinking.

I owned a Aerovate 20cc rear carb engine and it was a great little powerhouse. They have great support as well. Talk to Piston in the RCGF forum he will help you out he is great.

Very good advice from HF989. Forget about the 17cc as the weight difference between the two is miniscule while the power difference is significant.
