Default ClockWorks Picco P3 drag modded engine

This is just a video of my Clockworks P3 in my Pro-Mod chassis. This engine is STRONG I must say and it has a nasty chop sound at idle like it has a camshaft in it. You can hear it a little but the video sound quality is not that great to hear what it sounds like in person. I will also say that for a drag race engine, this thing so far has been more than impressive being that it is a off-road engine. I can't say my ET's just yet but let's say that 1.80's are behind the car AND that is with a chassis that is still not yet fully tuned in. The local record around here is what I am after and those guys use nothing but .21 engines and giggled at the .28 that I have until it laid down some out of the trunk ET's and all over the track doing so. I have a great guy that is helping me tune the chassis and right now we have to add alot of weight to the front end because it is hard to steer a car that is on the back tires darn near the whole 132' track run.

Neil, I tuned on the low speed needle and got it alot better and also am using a medium Picco turbo plug now. Call me later.

Have you any more feedback on this mill? Sounds wicked. Iam hoping to put a modded os28 in a drag chassis soon. What times have you clocked?
Thanks.

NOTHING yet. It is way too cold here(Maryland) and the track is closed until springtime now. I will let you know though as I am excited about this engine. It does seem to be a very stout engine but I will have to run it in extreme Pro-Mod but that is o.k. too.
