Default need advise for ryobi conversion

Folks i got a 31 cc conversion going on .I have a few questions.Those of you who did it please advise me on the steps.
I want to know what type of loctite if any you use to lock the prop hub.My engine is a short shaft and i want to make sure that hub won't come off .I ordered parts from wacker engines.

Secondly :carburetor.I have a wt 391 for the ryobi.Diagram on line says it's 11 mm venturi. Is that a good size of do i need to leave stock carb?Stock have a much smalled throat.

Third..If any one of you used a square mount from wacker engines could you please post a pic or two on how you routed your throttle linkage?

Thanks alot.

Mitty

Mitty: I am not sure...but I think so. I would make that mount look like swiss cheese just to jet rid of any extra weight. I would use a velocity stack on the carb so fuel does not spit back. Good on any engine really. Some people call them a air horns. Helps fuel milage too. Good luck, Capt,n
