In the States though it is sold by Associated - and listed as such under Asso at tower for ex..

Just get the LRP - seems to be the no-brainer choice for LST's.. I'm just waiting for my Mach to die before mine goes in...

The only thing better for the price would be a Picco. The LRP is awsome. Its not made by Associated either. Its made by Sh and sold under Associated. LRP is also under Picco and are comming out with alot of cool stuff.

Overall the Picco is a better engine. More power, better materials but higher maintenance at first. Picco is an italian made engine and known to be a powerhouse.

The LRP is a German company but made by SH/Golden Lion. SH makes very good engines but are made with cheaper materials. Real easy to tune and tons of power. They just done last quite as long and cant be moded to the max like a Picco can. Still a great budget engine and cant be beat for teh price. If you can swing the extra 30 bucks then go picco. I have an LRP in my Savage and love it. It screams and I dont have to touch the needles. You cant go wrong with the LRP or the Picco.

You have to be careful when comparing a Picco, non factory team edition, and mandatory long header when mounted in a LST. I've owned both and the LRP owned on top....

I also think the LRP has beter top end but I wouldnt dare say that here because all the Picco gurus would be all over me. Picco definately has torque over the LRp but the LRP is still pretty wicked. It smokes a MGT8.0 so Im happy
