Default RE: gas engine reversal - is it possible ?

because your two stroke glow engine are rotary type and have the rotary valve as part of the cranckshaft.
it order to get a two stroke glow engie work CCW, you need a different cranckshaft with a different valve timing.

most gas engines are leaf valve type, theire timing is determined by the position of the hall sensor and magnet.
