Default Determining Static Thrust ?

I am building a plane to be powered by a Saito 180. This plane will not be fast, but rate of climb is important. I know that static thrust is best when using a low pitch, large diameter prop. In this case, I am planning a 18x6 prop. But I have no good idea of how many pounds of static thrust this will give me. Are there any tables or charts that provide this information?
