Help! Gas Conversion to Glow, How to ?

Hi Fellows,

I have couple air blowers of 28cc, McGulloch, and on APC 18x6 they give me
about 6300 rpm. I am hoping that the conversion to Glow would help me getting
the rpm at least to 9,000. Where I can read about How to do that in details,
or at least if someone can tell me please how to replace the Spark Plug with
a Glow Plug, i.e. Where to buy from the insert which I need to screw into the cilinder head where to place the glow plug ?

Best Regards,
Nikolay

If you find that info, keep us informed. I have seen a glow converted to gas, but the only ones I've seen go the other way are the racing guys and their Zenoah GT-80's on glow.
