Default Decathlon / Prop Size??

I'm getting close to finnishing me Dynaflte Super Decathlon. I started it 2 weeks ago. So I'm pretty happy with how fast I'm progressing with the build. I don't know very much about Props. I'm using a Super Tigre G2300. http://www.supertigre.com/engines/supg0248.html

Super Tigre Recommend a 18x8 or 18x10 Prop.

Is that going to be to large or will one of those work fine?
Any suggestions on that Prop Pitch to use as well?
The only thing that I do know for sure is that I want to use a wooden prop. I just like the look of wooden props better them plastic.

And for a aircraft this size would it be better to use a Pull - Pull Set-up on the Rudder, instead of a Push - Pull that it shows on the plans?
