I agree. Alpachinos Kiton really has a different sort of "behind". Really different setup and very attractive. I might even copy some of it when I get to that stage in my own build. That is in 6-8 months or so.
Then Alpachino will experience a virtual showdown (or so I hope).

Cheers!

Hey Woodie,
Go here on XTREME and see all the work from A to Z and you can copy as much as you like, and if you want more info just let me know

The Polini Blata engines are mostly used in mini motorbikes, but this one is modifyed to RC gasboats. Price is 1.050 EUR (!). But this includes a Wallbro carburetor, a 3-disc coupling, integrated waterpump and more.
So with (relatively) low weight and brute power, there should be no need for extra (costly) tuning.
Only trouble will be to find the gear (flex drives, gearbox etc.) that will be able to take the stress of 13.4 hp at more than 17.000 rpm.
