Default RE: stihl 017 on glow conversion

bn120, if you will eloborate on what exactly you had to do to this engine, besides add glow plug, and maybe change the carb gaskets and diaphram. I have never converted a "weed" engine for anything and would like some advice to get started.
I will be using homlite leafblower motor. Not sure the size, but I think its bigger than 23cc, as it was the better more powerful model.
Also how would the prop bolt up? Do I have to get some parts for this?
I haven't extracted the engine yet, so I haven't got a good look at it.

Thanks
