Thinking about putting this engine on a new go kart build, looks just like a predator 212 too. Has electric start and around the same price of a predator 212. I also like that its painted black instead of some vibrant colored engine like most of the electric starts are. So what do you guys think of this engine? Do you guys think this would work with a go power sports predator 212 performance parts too?

That's a 208cc.
They're made by ducar... A pretty good deal with E-start.....

Up north here we have the Princess Auto(our harbor freight) and they have their branded model of the same.... much more expensive then that....

Shipping to the Midwest is about $40. Still, not too bad....

Just the electric start upgrade to my Honda GX270 is $99. I say go for it.

It's only $35 to ship to Alabama. I want to buy one just to put it on a shelf.

$35, that's because you are National Champions of shipping costs.

Nice Find. Electric Start 420's are cheap too.
