A few weeks ago my son made an inspection window in the block of his clone. Well, this Sunday we have a race that came up at the last minute. I don't have another clone to run, and time and money are too short to get one by Sunday. I do however have a predator still in the box, part number 69730. I believe that is the non hemi, but I dont know. I do not know much about the predator engines, this one was in a friends garage. He gave it to me a couple of months ago to run as a backup engine, but I have never opened it as we run clone classes.
Anyway, this weekend the track we are going to has an open class. I am thinking of sticking this clone on his kart so he can turn some laps. What can I or should I do to this engine to get it ready to race? I have an air filter that will fit on it and an exhaust pipe that I can make work. All other parts I have are clone specific. Again time and money wont allow us to get any parts ordered.
Also if I use an open air filter and an open exhaust pipe what should I do with the carb? I have a Holey Moses carb from a clone. I cant read the jet size but looking at the predator jet and the holey moses jet I can visibly see the holey moses jet is much larger than the predator jet.
What should I do to get this predator ready to race?
