Default Bolen's 32cc engine conversion

I have just acquired a like new Bolen's 32cc string trimmer engine and would like to convert
it to be used in airplane. I would need a prop hub, engine mount and ??????. Does anyone
have any experience with this engine, and where to get conversion parts for it? Is this engine
manufactured by Ryobi, Echo or Homelite or another company for Bolens? Any and all info
will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Do you have any pictures? I don't know for sure but 32cc sound like a McCulloch! or?

Don't know about any 32cc Bolens, but the "Ryobi" 31cc twin ring engine I have is actually from a Bolens weedwacker bought at Lowes. Don't you love it when you see 5-6 different brand names that are essentially made by the same 1-2 manufacturers?

Look at the engine, if it is a rear exhaust rear carb 31cc, then it is practically guaranteed to be a Ryobi in disquise.
