RE: O.S vs ofna picco
well, ofna and picco are the same company........
Out of the two motors you listed the .26 red dot gets the belt..... more power without more size/weight.( no replacement for displacement.)

RE: O.S vs ofna picco
not without a BB conversion kit or a monoblock. you won't need a huge engine to pull wheelies with 40 series. i can pull wheelies with my OS 18tm on 20% with my big joes. the extra power will be nice though. the picco .26 is the largest engine i think that you can fit in the stock location. the .28 will need a big block conversion to fit. this could mean a new chassis.
the other option is to buy a UE monoblock and an extended driveshaft and then it would fit. but i would personally take this time to buy a good quality BB chassis that is strong and durable.<br type="_moz" />

I don't think you can fit a .28 with just a monoblock on the stock chassis... You might be able to move the tranny forward and little and get it to fit though. My .28 picco Still only has about 1/16th between the end of the crank (with screw in it) to the tranny case and I'm running the fast lane BB chassis.
The UEstuff is pretty pricey.... by the time you pay for a monoblock and hunt down an extended driveshaft (or get one made) your pretty close to what a bb kit would be.
