Default Help choosing engine.

My wife just ordered me a kombat20 for fathers day. Now it's time to selectg the engine. I have no experience with smaller sized engines.
The plane calls for a 25-32 2 stroke but also says it flies well with a 40 sized bushing engine like the os40la.

I think the plane weighs in at 3lbs.

Anyhow. I want a nice sunday flyer. I want descent vertical but don't need unlimited.

Now heres the catch. 3 planes ago I promised my wife. No more planes this year. Well here we go. I will now need an engine, flight pack etc.

I want to keep the cost of the engine at a minimum which rules out the os32sx. I am leaning towards the os 25fx.

Does anybody have any suggestions. I feel most comfortable with OS engines However I would be open to any suggestions.
