picco 26 question

[Jus2krazy2007]

What percent fuel do i use 20% or 30% and do i have to add on a shim if i use 30%..... also what would need to be done to a stock savage to have the picco in it without it breakin all kinds of parts left and right?

I would get a set of robinson racing gears, that pico will eat stock hpi gears like cookies. and 20% fuel

oh i forgot to ask what plug would you recommend?????

The 26's run better on 30% nitro content. The recomended shim is 1/10mm per one of the Orion's sponsored drivers. You can run it with or without the additional shim.The recomended plug is ofna/picco #51007.

StretchM with 30% nitro will that reduce the lifespan of the engine

No it will not shorten the life if tuned properly. I used to think the same thing. It will run a little cooler. You will not have to lean it out as much to get the hp. I use the shim.
