    More RPM? Spend more money. Either install billet parts, cam and valve springs, settle for about 5 grand or buy a motorcycle. I'm done here. Have fun and be safe.

    Predator 212 gov delete support mods

    Sometimes I just double the stock springs, but not in the farthest hole in the governor arm. Maybe both in the middle hole and adjust from there. Lowe's and Tractor Supply have good selections of springs. You'll want one slightly stiffer, or harder to stretch than the original. Length is not...

    Is it not safe and reliable, now? I like to leave the governor connected and working. I often replace the long spring between the throttle arm and the governor arm. I can run about 45oo RPM safely like that. Costs about 3 bucks.

    I actually have a TT33 sitting in a table next to my desk, loaded. I can convert it to 9mm in about 10 minutes. 7.62x25 is an absolute BLAST to shoot!

    Home made flywheel explodes and almost kills it’s builder.

    We could see the tubing stretching out of shape before the genius reached for the throttle, but he did it anyway. Now, he plans to do it again.

    Dyno Cams

    They will schedule curbside pickups, but orders must be placed online, phone, or snail mail. They are not open to the public. Bummer.

    Home made flywheel explodes and almost kills it’s builder.

    I saw a video of a 212 idling with the shroud on it, but no video of any damage.

    The kart was so bad ***, they hit a mini van, and then they offered it to random tourists along the road to drive? On a mountaintop? I call BS, too.

    Just think...there is nothing on the INSIDE of that flywheel. Knucklehead's experimental balancer might have survived in there. At least, it would not be all over the neighborhood.

    Madness is always worth your time, as long as someone else is risking his life. Yes, Sir, watch the video.

    Dyno Cams

    I sent an email asking that question. No reply, yet. The pictures on the site do not show a retail counter.

    Dyno Cams

    I have been collecting billet parts to build an electric start HS50 Tecumseh and a flathead 5 horse Briggs. I recently got a double ball bearing long block for the Briggs, unfortunately, it is a cool-bore. (no steel sleeve) I am now shopping for valvetrain pieces. It seems like Dyno Cams is the...

    Home made flywheel explodes and almost kills it’s builder.

    Plastic fuel line, steel ball bearings and some type of oil (Flammable??!!) to balance a flywheel? It was already balanced, and he is lucky he didn't get perforated!

    I would suggest that you purchase a welder and learn to use it. That frame is solid, you and your Chief Engineer can modify it, upgrade it and build a trailer. No better investment for a BUDGET BUILDER!

    Good Moderate Cam Upgrade For Predator 212

    Back to the cam question: The stock Predator 212 cam is a pretty damn good low and midrange cam. I have one , all stock except a .010 steel shim head gasket, 1.2:1 rockers, lash set at zero, cold, and a Tillotson blueprinted stock carb. That is on a CT200U with a TC, and it rips. Coming around...
