Either way, I am at a point with the build that I need to decide* on what to use, Preferable gas?

The OS 91 2 stroke would work great I'm running a .75 Super Tigre. If you are worried about the the fit why not try on of those new Evolution gassers? The are the same size as a glow but are all gas engine the only difference you can see is the plug, a slightly larger carb, and the pickup for the ignition timing.
