Default GP Super Stearman Gas vs. Nitro in cold climates?

Hello,
I'm trying to decide on an engine for my new GP Super Stearman, since I live in Canada, I will be flying on cold weather and snow 1/2 the time, I'm trying to decide between a Saito 180 and a Zenoah G-26 EI. I've heard that Nitro fuel can 'gel' in cold weather, but I love the sound of the Saito 180.
Just wondering if anyone out there has had experience either way?
Also, does anyone know how long the Stearman will fly on the stock tank for either of these engines?
