Default EVo 40

Morning all. I'm almost finished with the recovering job on my old Easy 2 trainer, which thus far is going very well. As I stated in earlier post. I'm giving this plane to my father inlaw. The plane has the stock EVO 40 engine. It takes alot of runway to get it airborne. Was wondering what your thoughts were on getting more torque/speed out of the 40 to allow my father inlaw to get off the ground a little faster. Running a 10X7 prop on it at the moment. One other thing I noticed is the front of the plane sits a tad lower than the rear. I think if I extend the front landing gear a tad, angling the nose up a little might help get it off the ground a little faster as well. Or I could just drop a 46 in it and be done. Open to all suggetions.
Thanks
