I have been around the block for quite a few years, and have never seen a .21 with the kind of power a Bonito has......I believe it will outperform any of those older JP engines without breaking a sweat....It is really unlike anything that has come before it IMO...... with the 17.6 mm stroke the bottom end is insane, and with the 7 ports sleeve the top end is thru the roof.....

the last hybrid we built was using a VZB piston/sleeve in a XZB long stroke..making it a .23....It ran like a beast, but still doesn't match the Bonito......The Bonito is just in a class of its own....has to be seen to be believed......It is IMO the strongest, fastest most wicked offroad .21 on the market...
