Glad you showed the mess up with the bolt snapping. Stuff happens to everyone.

You always wind your torque wrench down completely on zero so there is no tension on the spring

[@bwxmoto]

See now I heard it was that you were supposed to put it at the lowest setting (not totally loose). So I leave all mine at the very bottom, so the spring is naturally under some slight tension, but only a tiny bit. They seem consistent so far! I think the best thing you can do is not to drop them though.

[@jrok96]

that is precisely what your supposed to do

[@Gdgtry]

Gotta say this was one of the most enjoyable (watchable? focused? zen? good?) videos. Something about watching the work come together. Work through the issues. Not too much commentary. No distractions. I sat here and watched the whole thing straight through and if you'da asked me I'da said it was only 10 mins long. Keep it tight and focused like this IMO. Your boys good on the camera. Just slow him down a hair on his camera movement. Get one one of those weighted camera stabilizers for like $40 on Amazon. It will help everyone who does camera work. Keep it up. I could watch this sort of video all day. Love watching you get it done.

You could add a blue led light in the valve cover through the pcv hole and seal it with a rubber gromet it would look cool

Red of there's anything I've learned from small engine performance modifications and what could potentially be done locktight , it would be, using a heat gun. Love this engine bro, hope to get one some day

[@christianmarks431]

Love the vid

[@bwxmoto]

I'm confused. If you knew the bolt had red loctite on it, why didn't you heat it up before attempting to loosen it? Or did you and it still wouldn't break free? -edit -answered at 25:33. Makes sense.

[@julierunels4668]

You mentioned the four studs in the rocker stud package but left out the fact that a real stud was installing them. This is a SUPER impressive build. Can not wait until it's done. To all you haters out there...quit posting mean stuff or I will hunt you down and beat you around the head and neck area for picking on my Red Beard. By the way this is Jim not Julie posting these comments. God Bless and peace out to Red Beard, Mrs, baby boy, brother, Lonnie etc etc

[@johntownley83]

I will take that custom rocker stud bolt. And that's no joke.

[@rampant_reptile1125]

After you weld the nut on the broken stud, use a hand tool to break it loose. Steady torque breaks the stud free, impact force breaks the weld. I learned on GM 5.3 LS engines in chevy trucks and suburbans.

[@dannyscobee6530]

A mod we have done on a micro sprint engine was to run a thin head gasket to boost compression.

[@geoffreyjones2000]

Have you seen the bolt heaters?... snap on happy new year peace

[@promenacegaming5402]

All quick like.

[@NewfoundlandBen709]

Thats going to look SICKKK lol

[@supermotofeann]

if u ever have to weld in the head like that use a bunch of wet rags or wet napkins, its works so much better at catching the slag and protects everything around it, also no fire bc there wet, just a welding tip for ya =)

[@gonzobtrappin1911]

With the ECU abilities this little engine could be a good platform for a turbo...

[@joshdupont2209]

Kinda like Cars and Cameras turbo drift trike

[@gonzobtrappin1911]

@@joshdupont2209 this would be a better platform because of the ECU. It can change air fuel ratio to keep the engine from leaning out at high rpm. That is hard to do with a regular carb.

[@joshdupont2209]

@@gonzobtrappin1911 their ECU is self learning. It should do the same, no?

[@gonzobtrappin1911]

@@joshdupont2209 if it has an ecu yes, but looking the description of the engine I didn't see one.

[@zackmcguire3837]

I want to se that thing turbocharged too

[@username-mk8gf]

I can't believe this is a house brand engine for a tank tread scooter, it seems like they would do better just making these things. It should last awhile, not just because of the oiled bearings, but also by having retarded idle ignition, but the CDI reads both rpm and throttle position, so the timing can be as advanced as possible. Pretty much the best Honda clone ever. Please revisit this one, it would be so awesome on a mega moto 80!

[@papabits5721]

What if any is the torque value on the head studs? Great video. Permatex makes the new orange lock tight, holds like red but works like the blue.

[@dansmessygarage6720]

Happy New Year ! You mentioned in the video you were going to tell us the lift and duration on the cam. Of course I was waiting for the info, but it never happened ... Please tell us as you said you would.

[@cth0211]

always use assembly lube or 30 wt motor oil under the head stud nut and washers.

[@AdamEichmann]

I use a buiseness card to set the cap between the flywheel

[@julierunels4668]

Mrs...I never noticed seeing my name on the wall but I did see the cross. I still love you even though you left me off the wall. xoxo

[@mrs.redbeard4718]

It is on the wall. I double checked last time you said this.

[@yeetskeetledeet8184]

All the air sensors and Ecu stuff can be eliminated with a lectron carb. The oiling system is cool though, idk if lubrication was an issue for gx200’s before. I certainly never have had issues with a predator 212

[@watahyahknow]

my guess is that moving the weight of those roller rockers back and forth might loose the same amount of horsepower as with the friction of the stamped steel ones , it might even cause some delay in closing the valves at high rpm (valvefloat) might reduce wear and have less rocking motion on the valve stem though

[@philiprowney]

I love the lump of garden hose for the 'oilway', they could have used a colour other than green ;0)

[@3347861]

The side play on the rocker rollers is probably there because the aluminum will expand with heat. If they didn't have endplay they'd bind when hot...

[@jesseserfling6807]

I've been looking at some of the fuel injection kits out there have you used any and if so what is a good one for tuneability on race engines

[@zackmcguire3837]

I wanna see that little beast turbocharged

[@landonpope7522]

I know this video is old but i just bought a lifan hp212e and it's almost exactly the same.

[@jok3yjesu339]

Watch someone make a side cover so that you can put that oiling system on a predator 212

[@baysidecustoms]

I got a 179cc electric start side shaft snowblower motor is it any good for a mini bike build

[@gizm0816]

Can you rum a vm22 on a 224 predator with no adapter like this engine’s carburetor

[@christophersanchez2698]

Perfect for a turbo

[@gsppuffer]

So is it a carb with tps or is it fuel injected?

Wish u would have ported the head since u had it off, but love the channel

[@cth0211]

use a pencil torch to heat up the boss around the broken stud to melt the red locktite.

[@michaelbass6176]

Hay red beard check out the gas tanks for motorized bicycles would fit your build and look sweet 25 bucks on amazon

[@MichaelWatkinsable]

Great

[@beechermudmowers5397]

Would those champion rockers fit a gx160

[@shanehaws3828]

You need to heat the head with out heating the bolt after you weld the nut on, the aluminum needs to expand away from the steel bolt so you can get it out

[@printersparadise5702]

can u use 1.2 or 1.3 rockers with stock springs and push rods.

Yup

[@joneserupinsmoke9161]

[@JoeJ523]

Hey red i need some advice please. I’m trying to make my old Schwin Stealth 1000 electric scooter gas powered. I purchased a predator 212 from harbor freight a few weeks ago to do this project. I also own a welder, grinder, and regular tools. My questions are what number chain should I use, and either a 5/8 or 3/4 jackshaft. Also what’s the best deal I can find mini bike wheels and tires with drum breaks? I’ve been searching like crazy trying to find a good deals but $160 - $200 seems to be the cheapest I can find.???? I checked Craigslist with no luck either.

[@jamesduffy9756]

Your going about getting your broken bolts out all wrong.. all you need to get is a left handed drill bit.. drill into it and when the bit gets stuck use the impact with a left handed bit and it will come right out. Happens all the time here in my shop so I have plenty of left handed bits for my impact with the quick bits on it.. works like a charm try it some time

[@thefordmaniac]

"All you need" you've obviously not removed a lot of broken off bolts. Guess you haven't broke one of those bits off before...
