True. I was looking at the JAG engines website and saw that hey have a Prop hub for long shaft MAGNETO engines thats $11 but looking at it I dont its going to work for the homelite engine since the website it says the parts are for Ryobi and MTD engines also the crankshaft on the homelite is keyed. The adapter looks like something that can be made from a coupling nut, two fender washers, and a nut and can be attached to a short shaft threaded crankshaft but I dont think that it would be to safe or smart. If the long shaft prop adapter from JAG would work then I would just buy that and know I have a good safe adapter. As for the prop I was think of using a 16x6 prop.
