Welcome to the newsletter.
I am not sure how FAA legal it would be but an experimental tow plane with a 
2.85 to 1 gear box and a 270-300 HP three rotor 20B would work great.
Some people in Australia spent big bucks ($500,000) trying to get a Ford V6 certified
in Australia. Obviously Australia has different rules as I think they are still using
it to tow sail planes.
