Hi all!! The 212cc stock predator in my MB200 is still running strong! No signs that it will let me down any time soon and I haven't been easy on the bike either.
I still have the OEM 6.5hp clone that came with the bike lying around....
Before I order the parts and do the install, I just wanted to confirm a few things:
1) The billet rod for the GX200 clone engine has center to center length of 3.303 inches?
2) Do I need to get a new wrist pin and cir-clips?
3) During the rod installation, is the wrist pin force fit into the small end of the rod? I.E., do i need to heat the small end hole before pushing the wrist pin through?
4) When installing a billet flywheel, is my main concern going to be to ensure the correct coil gap? If so, what is the correct gap? 0.030" ?
5) If the flywheel I'm looking at says it has 8 degrees of timing advance built into the key position, will that affect the motor's performance? That is, do I need to replace any other parts to get it to run similar to stock?
Basically, I want to get these 2 parts to make the motor less prone to grenading at higher rpm. Later on, other mods such as valve springs, etc. may be done.
