The obvious solution is to get the crankshaft re-threaded to lH threads, put the engine on and run it in Reverse!!!!!!!!!!! wait for more.
The port timing on the crank is for a CW running engine. You can start one backward, but they dont run very well.

Oh I donno know. I had a Enya engine that would only run backwards. [img][/img]

Even my instructor at the time, didn't believe it and had the engine for a month trying to get it to run properly. The best he could do was get it to pop over the right a couple times and they it backfire and start runing backwards, pretty well i might add.
Some Enya's can be reversed by rotating front case. http://www.supercoolprops.com/articles/enya.php
