here's a comparison

LRP Z.28:............................................. .WASP .26

HP 2.7............................................... .... HP 2.7
MAX RPM 28,000.................................... MAX RPM 37,000
CARB OPENING 7MM.............................. CARB OPENING 8MM
CRANK SHAFT DIAMETER 13MM............... CRANK SHAFT DIAMETER 14MM


WASP .28

HP 2.85
MAX RPM 42,800
CARB OPENING 8MM
CRANK SHAFT DIAMETER 14MM


so the question is price vs. performance
wasp .26 about 180.00
wasp .28 about 200.00
Lrp z .28 ?????

i run the wasp .26 and love it. i really don't need more but the .28 will be ordered some time soon.

LRP reclaim that their .28 engine is 3.74 HP, not 2.7.

Those horsepower numbers mean pretty much nothing. Actually, they really do mean nothing. Since each manufacturer has their OWN way of rating motors, there is no real way to compare them.
