Would picco .12 fit on my revo 3.3 ? Is it to small of a engine? Is it a good deal?
Here's a picture of the picco engine

Yes, the .21TM is a direct-fit replacement for the 3.3, including Traxxas's unique pilot shaft. The "TM" unofficially stands for "T-Maxx"

It's probably the nicest engine you could get for that vehicle.

Hey I got it but the 3.3 back plate doesn't fit and I don't see how the starter shaft would go in 🤔

A .21TM or the first one you linked? The .21 backplate should fit. The other one, the 21RG won't fit because it's a big block without a starter.

From Amain:

"This is the O.S. Max .21 TM Engine with the Revo Manifold (also fits Traxxas Slayer). This engine will be a direct drop in for the Traxxas 2.5 and 3.3 Revo or the Slayer Pro, but requires the OS 23818430 Ball Link. The .21 TM will adapt directly to the Traxxas EZ start or pull start systems."

I got the .21 non starter

Is there a bump box that would work for my revo on Amazon? I was looking alot that say 1/8 scale. Would one of those work well or do I have to find a Protecular one for the revo 3.3?

I could be wrong, but I don't believe it's possible to use a bump box on a Revo.

That's gonna be a tough build; you're also going to need the Revo big-block conversion kit; that engine is not compatible with the stock engine mounts the way a .21TM is.

There appear to be options for bump-starting a revo but they need a very specific started box with a wheel that reaches further up into the chassis than most. I'm just basing that on a quick Google search, could be wrong.

If the wheel sticks out atleast this far it would prob work right?

I'm sorry I can't be of more help, I'm not sure. It looks like you might need something like this

Just my 2 cents, I think fitting the big block will be more effort than it's worth, even now it would be cheaper to go with a Dynamite .19T that'll drop-in to your current setup.
