Default Engine choice for GP Skybolt

Hello,

I have now a Super Tigre .75 on my skybolt and I have a Thunder Tiger Pro 120 (20cc 2 stroke) .
It's OK for the weight, I have just to remove the extra lead.
But, should this engine not overpower the plane ?
Which prop should I use ?

Thanks

I'm running a Saito 120 with a 15-6 APC prop

I'm running a YS 91AC with a 14 x 11

I would say that the engine WON'T be too much for it. Don't know about the prop though.
