Default RE: midwest extra 300 is this a good engine for it

I had a Midwest 300S / Brison 2.4 and it was NOT enough engine but my plane was heavy - almost 17 lbs. by the time I put 20 ozs. of lead in the nose to balance it. It will be a good engine if it comes out at about 15 lbs. or less. Some guys can get it to come out at that weight, I couldn't and am not sure why.
