Default Engine selection for Weeks Solution...

Just picked up my first large bipe. Found it in one of my fellow clubmembers garages. It is an ACE R/C 72" span Weeks Solution. The plane is about 95% finished, only requiring an engine and some paint for playtime!
I would like to go with a gas powerplant. Any help you could give would be great! (Have not yet weighed the model)

Miles Reed designed a Weeks Solution many years ago..The original had a 60 inch wingspan and used one of my G62 ignition conversions for power..He later scaled it up and used the D&B twin..The Ace kit might be the second or third version...It would be great with any of the new lightweight twins...

Default ACE Weeks Solution?

I learn something new here every day. I never knew that ACE put out the Weeks Solution. I built the 72" ACE Weeks Special and used a Zenoah G-62. Great combination.
