Picco .28

So I just discovered during the past 2 years I've been gone that my favorite engine the Picco .28 has been discontinued. Any one know of another good quality Italian mills for around $200?

Seems like Italian made engines are becoming extinct these days. I used to run Sirio engines for years but they've all but dried up and disappeared.
This is the engine I'd recommend for the price range you're looking for.

I've never had a Nova yet maybe I'll try one eventually. I dont need an engine right now I was asking out of curiousity. Its kinda funny that they say not to use more than 25% nitro in that engine. I'm assuming an extra 5% isnt really gonna hurt it?

@Greywolf74 did you ever pick up a new nitro engine yet?

 

[Greywolf74]

Nah, I dont need one right now and at the rate I actually get to play with them it wont be much longer and I'm gonna just start stocking up on wax and change my name to Rolex Jr. although I have at least another 10 years to go yet before I start loosing my pants

I've currently got 2 Picco P3 .28's and my LRP .28 spec3. those will probably last me for quite some time barring stupidity and accidents lol
