The LO206 is the same as the Animal, except is sealed and ignition is limited to approx 6,100 rpms.
LO206 is definitely slower than an Animal which stock makes approx 8 to 9 hp and can reliably turn over 7,000 rpms. LO206 is mainly for entry level racing and is designed to keep down costs. Both are great engines.
Last year, I threw a rod in my Animal and bought a short block LO206 to replace all the Animal parts damaged (block, crankshaft, rod, piston, cam...). 100% my fault why engine failed, have otherwise been very reliable engines. :thumbsup:

LO206 limited to 6,100, World Formula to approx 7,200, Animal in effect not limited (has maybe 10,000 limit). Different PVL coils control the max rpms. You can convert a LO206 to Animal by changing the PVL ignition.
World Formula is different, has different head, piston, rod, carb, cam, valve train, but same block and crank. Great engine too, but I personally like my Animal better. :thumbsup:
In terms of stock HP: LO206, then Animal, then World Formula would be the most HP.
