HOMELITE TEXTRON 30CC GIANT SCALE R/C GASOLINE ENGINE

hello, heres a HomeLite 30CC long shaft engine I converted off a HomeLite Vac Attack ll leaf blower. it was in great shape to convert. I cut the excess aluminum off the crankcase and trimmed the backplate. I put a new cylinder gasket and made a manafold gasket. I made a knurled prop adaptor and prop washer. it has a hardened prop nut. I cleaned and rebuilt a carb I took off a McCulloch 32CC engine. I gutted the muffler and welded a pipe on it. I painted the cylinder Chevrolet orange and painted the muffler flat black engine header paint. it hand starts very easy and I got over 8000 RPM with a master airscrew 18x6 classic series propeller.
thank you. Gary. Dr Tune! ;-D

Nice. You know how to attach a flywheel to a homelite engine? The flywheel on mine has a broken keyway and I can't buy another :( Got any suggestions?
