Larry,
    I think it would work as long as you're just running the engine.  
The size tank that Paul has would hold probably 15 gallons full, 
probably 10 to 12 in a working capacity.  The water jacket on your 
engine will probably hold about 7 to 10 gallons so the tank would allow 
twice the capacity of your jacket.  I think the primary issue would be 
the size of the tank in comparison to your 20 HP Reid.  I bid on Paul's 
tank and I thought I might try to use it on a 6 HP engine.  But, it 
might work well for what you need also.
