What are your thoughts of this Picco TQ .21 compared to the 35Plus21 engines? I am a drag racer and fuel consumption is not a concern of mine rather just having an engine with TONS of bottom end grunt and mid range. My current Kangaroo has been 90.2 MPH from a dead stop up to 132' pass which is ballistic for that short of a distance.

Thanks to all for your input.
Whenever you change timing either sleeve or crank there is a give and get. When you raise the sleeve timing you will hurt some of the bottom end. My opinion the picco based engines all have alot of torque to them by there nature so loosing some may not effect it quite the same way another engine would be effected. Of course depending on how high we lift the sleeve.
