Default RE: Small Conversion Engines For This Twin?

Two old style G23s with all the extra stuff cut off, using aftermarket ignition, would work..We flew a 110 lb, 16 foot wingspan DOX seaplane with 6 of these, using 14-10 Zinger props...
Tried 15-8s, not enough rpm to get the thrust needed to get off the water..Flew it at about 1/2 throttle once in the air....
