I have kind of an odd project where i need an engine with a pull start to spin a propeller. I've seen the boat G26s with pullstarts, but obviously a propeller wont fit on them. Can the plane G26s use pullstarts? Can a boat G26 be modified to spin a propeller?

When I had to, I made a pulley to fit the front of the prop shaft, wind a rope on it and give it a yank. Works great.

The helicopter version of the G26 has a pull start, and with the additional parts linked below, it can be used with a propeller. However, you will have to fabricate your own way of mounting the engine, so the pull start is free and clear of the firewall. This will make the engine VERY long. What are you planning to do with it? If it is for an air boat (swamp buggy) this setup works just fine.
