.21 engine that you dont need to do a conversion for!!

[Domination]

i dunno if this has been around a while or not but its the first I've seen or heard of it its a picco .21 3.5 cc was just reading about it in the April issue of Extreme RC Cars this is a complete drop in for the 2.5 ez start and all CHECK IT OUT

 

[El Pirata]

Yeah but so I've heard you need to do a little slight modification to make the engine fit the chassis.

 

[Çh®i§tiªñ]

If you go to bolt it up on the older .15 style then yes. Otherwise the new 2.5 maxx it will bolt right on with the mount they give you.

So I've read.

Maybe that's where my wires are crossed.

that looks sweet. i have been looking to get a new engine or just rebuild with a sirio piston and sleeve. i really dont want to mod an engine to get it to fit, but i am also looking into saving to put in the thunder tiger pro .70...

 

[STYLEZ-MAXX]

Its awesome man. VEry good upgrade. I'v purchased that, sirio tx-18 and the xtm .18 for my Kid. Their all direct bolt ons with the 2.5 chassis. HAve fun!

Yeah that drop in engine may very well be awesome.

The whole point of an Extended conversion chassis is that it can handle the torque and power of a big bore and offer more high speed stability. I definitley wouldn't run that much power in a standard size chasis. Maybe in a Titanium chassis or a thick ass 7075 alluminum one but even then your still not going to get the added high speed stability.

Hell, A bash buddy who bought the Sirio .27 pro that I had is runing a Dynamite conversion and he says it's really hard to control @ top speed.

 

[StrechM]

It will work great after replacing several of the driveline components with ones that will handle all the new found power.

Check the front page, I believe there is already a recall on this mill.

i dont think its worth it, a small block 21... sounds fragile and expensive...
and by putting a 21 in , u have to get metal drive line the way or U WILL TOAST IT. and you guys were saying that the chassis would need to be longer to be stable, so by the time all that crap is fixed, u have converted to a full on 21 maxx.
might i ask why you would want a 21 small block (that has a recall the first week its on the market)
