Description
Product Overview
The BUHNSS connecting rod kit is tailored for the Predator 212cc non‑hemi engine commonly used in go‑kart carts. Constructed from high‑strength aluminum, the flywheel reduces rotational resistance while withstanding greater pressure, enabling higher speeds and smoother valve control. Each spring is calibrated for optimal performance above 7000 RPM, though length and rate may vary slightly between units. The package includes the rod, flywheel, and springs, all weighing a total of 4.5 pounds and packaged in a compact 2 × 2 × 2 inch box.
Usage
Designed for go‑kart enthusiasts and small‑engine hobbyists, this kit fits the Predator 212cc engine without modification. Ideal for track days, recreational racing, and performance upgrades, it delivers consistent power while maintaining engine reliability. When installing, tighten the rod bolts in three stages to the specified 150 in‑lb torque to prevent stripping and ensure longevity.
