    looks pretty dope! I have a blowtorch I use to melt aluminum cans in a steel container and I just surround the steel can with old/broken roofing tiles.

    B.S. motor ID

    Well, at least it looks like they did a good job repairing the block. looks like you got a nice little raptor, only thing I would be worried about is the little dents on the piston.

    New guy from u-tah

    If I were you I would get a Comet 40 series and put a higher stall kit on it, the horsepower limit is more of a suggestion. If you don't want to go that route you might want to make a jackshaft (gear reduction) setup with a Hilliard clutch. And if you want to do neither and have some money to...

    Predator 212 performance parts expectations

    Correct, but those are more of suggestions when it comes to small blocks, but when you get into big-block single-cylinder and twin-cylinder engines (301cc, 420cc, 670cc) a 40 series becomes mandatory, due to the fact that these engines can produce more raw torque than any 'built' small block...

    40 series tc higher stall

    I have had the same issue with my predator 420 on my minibike and I have changed the springs before. It is a fairly simple operation you just put the clutch in a vise and I use a giant adjustable wrench (available at harbor freight for $20) to take the big nut on the top off. The springs come...

    GX390 on Manco Vortex- TC or clutch?

    If you are running a clutch you WILL NEED a gear ratio of at least 6:1, otherwise, you will burn clutches instantly (I've done this with $150 clutches) so if you go the clutch route you have to build a jackshaft. As for the CVT option, I highly suggest the go power sports 40 series it's much...

    Predator 212 performance parts expectations

    you are going to get high-end power, but less power at the low end. As for your CVT you definitely don't need a 40 series just get a genuine comet 30 series from go power sports.
