Default Power System for a 4 Engine Bomber

Hello everyone,
I know I probably should do more research myself but I'll ask here anyway.
I have been flying a alfa model for about 6 months now and really like it. I have a Avro Lancaster kit that I have started but have not bought the engines for it. It calls for 4- 91 Four Stroke engines.
I am looking at about $1000 for all 4, Maybe a little more. I have even pondered over making it a Manchester and going with 2 gas engines.

Does anyone know what would be a good electric set up would be for a plane this size. 132" wing span and they say about 32lbs. I would like to be inexpensive as possible but realiable. and brushless motors. I was pricing a set up through Hobby Lobby and just off the web site I was looking at about $1500 or more...

Thanks in advance Ty
