Any thoughts? Props? Nitro?

OS 61FX !

I used the .61 and it had no difficulty with flying this plane (w/flaps and retracts). I'm sure the .91 would do just fine, IF it is a reliable engine.

I would go with the OF 61FX . A Supertigre 75 would also be a good choice, but it may be difficult to find. Thats what I had in my TF P-39.

Just had a thought....if you don't use the OS, make sure your muffler will clear the fuselage. My OS 61FX required a muffler extension to get it away from the fuse side.

Don't know about the ST....but check it out first.
