Anyone know if the Picco ..28 will fit on the revo? And will the LRP .28 ZR fit also?

With a big block kit and exhaust. LRP's backplate is too big ITBJRC.

make sure you get the kit with the offset rear A arm

Offset arm? Do tell...anything similar out there for the Slayer?

savagecommander

its a goofy basically stock a arm, but the radius is exaggerated to allow the block size difference. some "big block" kits dont have that, and you NEED this. i am unaware of any for the slayer.

you need the BB kit for both motors?

savagecommander

on a revo, yes. the big blocks are gargatuan compared to the 3.3... they can be had off the bay for a resonable price.

...yes....

AND A PIPE.

Ok, one more dumb question, on some engines with the BB kit on a Revo requires lots of modifications, do the picco .28 and lrp 30 both require the same amount of mods or they a direct drop in with the BB kit?

Just get the Novarossi if you can't swing an RB TM523. Novarossi has a $200 engine that comes with a pipe that's a direct bolt in. It's a .15. Or get the OS 21 TM.

We've already discussed this in many threads.

No matter what, you're going to spend more than you're willing to to put a big block in this thing, so just do it right and get one of the exotic engines instead of one of the low end sport engines that's still going to require $200 worth of stuff to fit it.

The Picco 28 and the LRP 30 will fit using a New Era BB kit without rear arm modification.  Linkage and clutch can be tricky, but doable without modification.

Ok, the Picco .26 max with the THS pipe is my final decision
