What do i need to up my savage x to picco .28

[lyndo62]

I was looking to upgrade my engine from a 4.6k to a.28 pico. I understand i should get another exhaust pipe and there are kits for roto starters as well. also what should i use for clutch bell shoes etc. I was thinking of just changing bearings in the clutch bell and using the stock setup. Also can the stock air filter setup be used. As well will this engine just mount up or do i need a bracket.


Thanks for your help guys

You need the engine and preferably a set of aluminum clutch shoes.
Pick up a set of Dynamite max life clutch shoes and Mugen .9 springs.


The stock air filter is fine, the stock engine mount is fine, the stock exhaust will get you by but i suggest picking up an Ofna 086 pipe.

cool thanks. I also heard that you can fit a .26 .27 picco back plate on the .28 to get the rotto start to operate correctly is that true. Also the pipe i am using is the hpi ribbed pipe.

Not sure on the back plate, i dont run a Picco.
