Ofna .26 Picco Max into a Revo 3.3
Hello
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...7&I=LXKHF0&P=K
I am going to be putting a Picco .26 in a Revo 3.3 and was wondering;
What engine mount works well in the 3.3? and is this satisfactory?
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...7&I=LXKHF4&P=K
Tower says, but is it really okay, to run the same clutch(16t), same exhasut, and the resonator?
Can I run Top Fuel 20%? If not, what fuel should I use / are people using?
Are these good plugs? http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXCB29&P=V
What other plugs work well?
What clutch bell spur combo are people running? I would like to be able to wheelie but not constantly.
Can I run the 3.3 air filter neck with a Motor Saver on it?
Any other info would be greatly appreciated. Please provide links to suggested items.
Thanks

1.) That is a great motor.
2.) The mount will work just fine, its what i use with no problems.
3.) Yes, all the traxxas stock parts bolt right up.
4.)20% will be fine, I run 30% in mine.
5.) I would run an OS#8 but try and see.
6.) With this motor you will want to run 36/17 to help calm down the wheelies, plus the picco has no problem pulling this combo.
7.) Yes, you can use the stock neck with a MS air filrer, reguires a little modding. I run a HPI Savage air filter on mine with no modding at all.

Search for the Dark Side thread, its the official Picco owners thread around here, though l3asher has covered everything.

Here's the "How To" with the MS air filter and stock neck. If it was me I would use either the HPI or RB 1/8 buggy filter. Something about having to make the air filter fit just does not sit well with me, but to each his own.

Basher gave some good advice but...
These are not the correct plugs for this engine, you need LONG NECK glowplugs.
I like the TRAXXAS plugs.

When you say not correct,
Does that mean, for the fuel I am running or for the engine. What is the negative of using them?.
Are these what you mean?

I3basher, I already had that done. I thought you meant I had to modify the neck so it would fit by the spur. Should be good to go already then.
