Default Walker Machine 3.2

I just got this engine on a trade, came with an Ohio RC 28% Extra. It has very low run time, it has CH Ignition. I have limited experience with GAS, I have Two G-26's and one DA-50R. I was wondering if this is a very good engine, worth keeping on the plane, etc. Also if there are any tips with this engine I should know. I did a search with not very much luck with this Motor, just to watch the timing, etc.

I have the original paperwork for the engine, and the oil mix they say to use is 30:1 with one extra ounce of Oil to the gallon for 4 tanks, then switch to the correct ratio that will best suit the type of operating condition. I plan on flying it very scale, and I am not into 3D type flying. I run Amsoil 80:1 or 100:1 Saber in my other engines after the break in, and was wondering if this will be ok in this engine. Walker just said to use a "good quality" oil. The owner said he did not run/fly this set up much, should I run some 32/30:1 non-synthetic for a few gallons first? I know nothing about this engine. Thanks for the help!
