Default RE: GP GEE BEE

Well I thought that I had an engine for the Gee Bee.
Its missing one roller for the rod big end and cannot find out what motor it is to order parts.
Apparently it is a conversion of a weed eater or chain saw motor.

Converting it to glow and milling some excess weight off the weight of complete converted engine with prop adapter and all is around 35oz.
The size is about 36cc so will probably never need full power so should be able to run it on just methonal and oil.
AUW looks like 12lbs.

Help identifying it would be great so this project can Fly!
