Hey guys. I have a 212 predator, non hemi, that I've recently put some basic stage 1 stuff on (Intake Filter, Jet, Exhaust), and i want to build it even further. Pretty much a performance build for a yard bike. Does anyone have a 212 build I can take some inspiration from? Or does anyone have some advice for a new builder? I'm definitely going with a billet flywheel first. Any advice as too what I should do after that? Carb? Thanks.

First off...until you install stiffer valve springs...the LAST thing you need is billet ANYTHING!

And when you do install stiffer valve springs ..the FIRST thing you need is a billet connecting rod...(still no need to swap out the factory flywheel until you get above at LEAST 6500 RPM!)

The FIRST thing to do is completely remove the govenor....(you're mods are actually completely useless until you do.)

There are tons of threads and information on GOOGLE on how to mod these engines. That being said ...I'm sure someone will post a link.

How much $ do you want to spend. How fast do you want to go? How big are your tires? What is your gear ratio? How much does the vehicle plus you weigh? ? you have a Torque Converter or Clutch? Where do you drive it?

Those are all needed to find at what RPM, you should be making power.

Then you can work on picking out parts to tune to that RPM
