Truggy ENGINE HELP!
I need a new engine for my Truggy or maybe not. I can not seem to find parts for myOfna Picco 26 Outlaw. Ineed a piston, conrod and sleeve. anyone know where to find these. If not i will be in the market for a new Engine. Im thinking about another Picco, if so which PIcco would be a good race/bash engine for my 8ight-t truggy?

I think it is cheaper to just get a new engine. Im running the axial 28 and you the price is so low right now just get the bump start back plate and your ready to go.

Chase what do you think about theNovarossi N21BF Limited Edition .21 Off Road 3 Port Buggy Engine (Standard Plug) will it make a good Truggy engine with a decent pipe?Price is right on that right now.

I dont know much but with a 21 youll get better run times and I would assume if its a powerful buggy engine it should have enough punch for a truggy

what about this

I have to say I just really like axial engines and I have the cheaper version and I think with with a good pipe it would be a beast. The thing that scares me about nova rossi is the it meant for a buggy.It is meant for a lighter vehicle

The Nova would be good for truggy as it has alot of low end, so if your running on a small track, it is morethan enough.

X2..,..Nova over Axial ANYDAYof the week......Axial is a sport RTRentry level motor and nothing more.

"if ur not a paid racer what diff does it make." what a very good point. I do like to hear what people have to say tho. Iwant to make informed buying decisions, not just get something ill regret later. Thanks for all the info so far guys. I still like the Nova engine, but just wonder how it will push around my truggy on teh track

RE: Truggy ENGINE HELP!
What about the Novarossi N21BF does anyone know much about this engine? Its only $149. I thought that was a great price for a Novarossi based engine, but i worry about it pushing my Truggy around. I would buy it in a heart beat if i know a little more about what it can do. The Mach and LRP are looking good right now too. GRRRR i can not decide!!! I just want a good all around engine that will hold its own in a club race. .21 .26 .28 LRP, AXIAL, NOVAROSSI, OS, MACH, OMG!!! Wish there was an easier way to decide. Keep the answers coming guys please! I like making informed decisions.
