Default I need your help with a conversion

Hello Everyone,

I need some help setting up a nitro to electric conversion. I have been building and flying R/C since 1980, but this is my first attempt with electric. The plane I want to convert is:

http://www.nitroplanes.com/newcmpla3650.html

It has a 59" WS
and weighs about 5.5 to 6 lbs.

What I need help with is everything regarding the power plant:

Motor type / size that is comparable to a .46 2-stroke (can dia, length, RPM/v input)
Prop adapter
Motor mount
Batteries Type/size/rating/chemical compound (multi-pack setup?)
Charger type
ESC type and size
Anything else I'll need to complete the conversion that I can't think of.

Brand names and specifics are very helpful. I do most shoping on Tower, so if they carry the parts, even better.

Thank you for your time!

Mike
