Default Marine OPS 67 engine in airplane ? possible ?

Hi to everyone.
I am from Spain. I have a SF jaguar aircraft. I am using an OPS 60 (weigths 580g) with this plain. I calculated this engine has aprox 2hp. It's moving a 11x7 at 14300 RPM (in ground) with a tuned exhaust. Aprox. the aircraft reaches 160km/h, but I want more speed.
I am wondering if it would be possible to install an OPS 67 marine engine, which has 4 hp (aprox) and can spin 22000RPM. So I suppose it could move the 11X7 aprox. at 16000-17000 RPM making my aircraft to reach the 200km/h aprox.
I need help and suggestions with this project...

If it wouldn't be possible to use this engine, which engine could I use. I think that OS 91fx has 2,8 hp, but it is a little bit expensive. How about GWS75 (which has 2,5hp) or Supertigre 90??

Thanks sorry for my english.
