Hello, I have some questions about my engine build and was hoping for some info/advice from y'all. I'm currently running a non-HEMI Predator 212 (on a Murray Explorer) with the governor removed, stage 1 air filter, .038 jets in the carburetor, 18lb valve springs, and a header pipe. Now, I'm upgrading the carburetor, flywheel, rod, and Cam. Here is the list of the exact parts:
.22mm Mikuni carburetor
ARC Billet Flywheel (8 degree built in timing advance to bring the ignition timing to 32 degrees)
ARC Billet Rod
MOD2 Grind Core Dyno Cam
I'm a novice at engine tinkering and I'm just trying to get my head around what kind of differences I can expect in performance. From what I'm gathering the Mikuni will allow a little more oxygen into the engine so that will give me a little more power there. The flywheel will advance my timing (as well as making it safe to run with no governor) and with the 8 degree advance in timing I can expect a little more power in the high end but less low end power? The rod won't add power but will be able to handle the power gains/higher RPM. The MOD2 grind cam will keep the valves open longer and give more high end power vs low end? Am I sacrificing low end/torque power for higher end power with this set up? My goal is to have more all around power but I want to keep this a more off road build with some nice low end power and torque. Thanks for any help in advance.
