Default RE: 4-stroke design idea

I think the 26cc Ryobi 4S uses a gear reduction for the cam drive vice a belt. I think you would have to strengthen the cam gear elements to make them strong enough for driving the prop. My Ariens sno blower takes the drive wheel power off of the cam gear; the impeller is driven off of the main shaft at full engine rpms.
