Hey imnotsure,..... I have the Picco 26 with Jumbo Swamp Dawg tires, and this engine will flip my savage on its lid every time. So if you have heavy tires and want wheelies, go with the Picco 26:bow: :bow:
i've been talking to a couple of airplane freaks. what is the max rpm of the .26 picco? and by the way twiztid25, it's not only just the weight of the tires, it's everything else also.
OK, to make the Picco 26 sound even better, I'm running a 16T clutch bell and totally stock shocks and springs. Does that sell you a little more?? The Picco 26 rules:w00t:
The antenna cover is shrink wrap that you can get at NAPA, and Christian (LOL) I'm glad you like the lid I've got, I really havnt had alot of time to bash the truck, been busy spending $$$ on the important thangs, and plus its not a bad looking body and its still in good shape You should be seeing a new HB Silverado lid in a couple weeks or so
Christian... thats the mount for the HB pipe that I broke last week. I'm still waiting for them to send me a new one, thats why the stocker is on it right now. I've got the RD Logics one piece on its way right now. Prob sell the HB pipe when I get it back:whistle: :sleeping:
twiztid25-what do i need if i was to buy the picco .26 to mount it in my savage, and i'm saying if. spacers, adjustable motor mount, etc, etc? is this some of the important stuff you were talking about?ha-ha-ha
look-somebody must have read this forum and decided to rip people's heads off
Thanx for the nice comment I've got a hightec 645mg (130oz) and it does the job ok. Prob. gonna upgrade soon. The zip ties help protect the head from all those lid landing wheelies. I havnt gotten used to the power yet, so that helps save the head from breaking of any fins and from getting scratched up. As far as the mounting goes, I used the stock 21 mount and cut the TVP becuase the flywheel hit it. Heres the important stuff I was talking about... Picco Outlaw .26, hpi heavy-duty dogbones, HB center driveshafts, motorsaver air filter, HB pipe, RD Logics pipe, Adrenaline filter buddy, Adrenaline tank guard, OFNA 125cc tank and posts, Mugen 3 shoe clutch and flywheel, OFNA 16T clutch bell, Hightec 645, HB brakes, Imex Jumbo swamp dawgs and diamond rims, Venom temp. gauge Hope this helps a little

I need a center skid and some acer bearrings in the steering and axles.
Picco .21 enroute - so Looks like I may need to up the center cvd's and possibly the outers. I'm hearing that the cups get destroyed by the 8 port and the Picco. So who knows. The new metal HPI gear looks good. I will prob also go with some threaded shocks sooner or later. Has anyone here checked out the Kyosho 3 shoe clutch? Does it even fit?
