I have a weedeater that I thought about converting but not sure what the engine is. Here are the markings:
On the front of the weedeater it says MAC 65SL, the model number is: 40005506, and the carburetor has Walbro stamped on it. I believe the weedeater may be a McCullock but not sure. Does anyone know what size engine this may be and or if it can be converted, and what size plane would be good for it? Also, what I would need to do to convert it. I will try to come up with some pix later today if I can. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure of your model #
Here is a site that make parts for conversions of the usual models

In the picture is a MAC of the 28/32cc size weed whacker. The blower looked a lot like it.

KenLambert,
Do you have an example of a small plane and size that it would fly well with? Thanks...
