Default Info need on Picco .21 Tmax engine

I want to know more about the Picco .21 direct drop in engine. Is this for real? When is it coming out? Is it a complete drop in like the Fantom 18 or Sirio 18? How much will it cost? What are the specs ( hp, rpms)? Any addition info

I called Werks Racing, who is distributing this engine in the US, as well as All non-OFNA Picco stuff (they're taking the line over from Trinity). www.werksracing.com , but they don't mention the new engine on the site yet. Picco's site DOES, though: www.teampicco.com

It'll be arriving late Dec./early Jan, it will street for about $200, and it is COMPLETELY "plug-in", i.e. EZ Start II compatible. I HAVE not heard any specs yet, but I imagine they're gonna smoke any current max engine!

Get in line....behind ME

It doesn't look like the stock engine mount will fit. What kind is the one on the engine?

i HIGHLY doubt it will smoke any current engine out. i would bet that my ported fantom or a sirio/2.5 would spank it. JMO

no one has seen one yet but from what i have seen; NOT IMPRESSED! size is not always better...

it has a small carb and exhaust; smaller than stock carb
and i dont think the stroke is very big judging by the case size
cant be high compression or the EZ start would not work
bigger engines cannot turn the rpm of smaller engines

just some food for thought

I read in a magazine that it comes with it's own mount for t-maxx installation.
