I'm sure the parts list in the box said 1540 but I could be wrong. I know the latest part number is 1541. Picco parts compared to others are generally much better priced, so not sure why yours was so dear.

Just check again, at least here in USA is super expensive Igthobbies $67.45, serpentamerica $69.16, speedworldhobbies is just $57 but shipping is ridiculous high. No other store has it in stock or plann to sale it.

Thanks. I was thinking to buy one from Reds but I was not sure the Reds conrod will fit.

You can use the Nova 41019 (41032 conical version) extra short (double-bend) header. We prefer the 2046 pipe for best overall performance. 2033 will give you more bottom but you will lose a little top end.

2099 makes less power with better economy. Not really needed in GT but will work if extreme due economy is desired.

2120 has the most top end

Is the Picco EMX WC.12 really as good as a Nova keep on?
And so durable?

I ran 2 Piccos all summer. I had great fun with my Keepons and flashes in the past. The Picco was an experiment more or less, but I was surprised at how well it ran. The last Picco I owned was the JL Red Dot series... I have 3 gallons through each engine and they both run fine. I change the rod every 1.5 Gals. of fuel. (VP). I'm heading to the World Nitro Cup tomorrow, so I'll let you know how things go. Prolly just put the jinx on them...lol

Does anyone have a exploded diagram of the EMX-WC .21 they can send me please?

Does the engine come standard with the #7 plug?

I just need to know part numbers to order spare rod/clip/pin/bearings

Thanks

As far as I know the motor doesn't come w/plug-many of us use #6
1548#for replacement sleeve/piston, rod 1541, pin 1440

Picco EMX-GT engine dominates PanAm event in Homestead. TQ, fastest lap overall, fast lap in the race, 1st, 2nd & 3rd in the race!

Just picked new EMX-WC .12 and .21 onroad engines.

Do I need to remove or add any shims inside the engine?

I run 16% in .12 and 25% in .21

I was informed 25% for both. It should be in the box info sheet.
