It is quite possible that the technicolor problems are related to the poorly known self-energy expression, or the way chiral symmetry breaking (CSB) is realized in non-abelian gauge theories. Actually, the only known laboratory to test the CSB mechanism is QCD. The TC dynamics may be quite different from the QCD, this fact has led to the walking TC proposal making the new strong interaction almost conformal and changing appreciably its dynamical behavior. There are different ways to obtain extreme walking (or quasi-conformal) technicolor theories, in this paper we propose a scheme to obtain this behavior based on an extension of the electroweak sector of the standard model, in the context of so-called 331-TC model.
