add that to the list, the stocker will work but it's well worth the $19 to upgrade.

You will also need a glow starter since you won't be using the EZ starter anymore...

I love my cheezy(EZ) start. Starts (almost) everytime & no missing skin between the webing of my fingers. That CVRX .18 is strong enough to haul the extra 3.8 oz. the ez start IMO. I shedded some weight by replacing the reverse with a foward only conversion, and replace the hinge pins And ball studs with Titanium ones. I also got rid of the stock gas tank & battery box.

is there a version of the engine that is setup for easy start, or do I have to buy a conversion kit, or convert it myself?

There is no cheesy start conversion for the CV-RX, a company used to make one but they went out of business. Your only options are pull start and bump start... there MIGHT be a tiger drive adapter for it (starting the motor with a drill)

The key to pullstarts is pre-heating the motor.
