    Which valve springs? - predator 212

    Hey all, recently just got a high compression head and new stainless steel valves for my Not hemi predator 212 build. I was running 22 pound valve springs and they were working great but the kit came included with 26 pound valve springs. What would you guys recommend running? Engine build...

    Motor bogs after throttle pull?

    I believe it’s a .38 jet if I’m not mistaken? If anything I would think it’s running rich since it spits flames out of the tail pipe when you give it gas most times but I’m no tuner so I could try leaning it out a little bit if that’s what you would recommend

    Valve lash good but motor still binds?

    Hey everyone, I have a pretty typical non-hemi 212 build with a 265 cam in it. I’ve set and triple checked my valve flash several times and made sure it was at .003 and yet it still has very tough spots when I try to pull start it and it often yanks the cord out of my hand as if the lash was set...

    All right I’m back! I have enough time to where I should be able to finally break in the engine. (Yes, I know, I shouldn’t have let it sit this long). Anyways, before I do I was wondering if it’s all right to break it in after it’s been sitting for so long. I used assembly lube in all the spots...

    Currently it’s not attached to anything but once I have the engine mount it on the frame, it’ll lead to the NOS canister which will be somewhere within arms reach so I can activate it while driving

    Well, here she is after a failed build attempt and a little bit more money than I’d like to admit in all her hacked together glory. Would love it if anyone could give me a rough horsepower/RPM figure based on the mod list below: (yeah I need to dust it I know) build list: Predator 212 non...
