Hey guys just curiuos which motor mount most are using with the picco .26 red dot. The ofna one seems to be the easiest to get but have heard of the traxxas bb mount and the new era mount. Also on pipe selection seems the trinity is good,what about a side mount would that be better? Thanks guys!

I would go with the new era mount for the simple fact that if you decide you don't want the picco any more and you wanna go with something bigger, you can as it is adjustable to take just about any BB engine on the market

This is the mount I use. You can get it directly from New Era. It works ok so far. My only gripe is that it leans the engine over so far that it makes a side exhaust hard to use.

They will not work with a small block engine. The Picco .26 is a mid block...so it might not work. I have not tried it. If you are going with the JL Red Dot or regular Picco Max .26 I would go with the Ofna mount. You at least know it will work.
