This .265 camshaft performance kit is engineered for Predator 212cc Hemi engine go karts, perfect for performance upgrades and racing builds.
The .265 camshaft with optimized lift and duration brings strong low-end torque and snappy off-the-line response. It improves high-RPM throttle feel and delivers moderate top-speed gains. The red aluminum flywheel features approximately 32° ignition advance to optimize combustion and boost high-RPM horsepower. The flat-top piston shrinks combustion chamber volume and raises compression ratio for faster revving. Included 26lb valve springs maintain stable valve control above 7,000 RPM for rigorous racing use.
The 3.328” connecting rod is forged from high-grade billet aluminum, providing an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio suited for high-RPM racing. The camshaft is constructed from high-strength ductile iron with induction hardening to HRC 55-60, resisting heat and deformation for extended service life. The 70mm ceramic coated piston uses premium aluminum alloy to retain dimensional stability under extreme temperature and pressure. Heavy-duty valve springs handle higher loads to cut wear and reduce failure risk at high speeds.
This forged connecting rod comes with an integrated oil dipper to continuously lubricate the crank journal and reduce wear under heavy loads. The red aluminum flywheel has 12 cooling fins that guide airflow toward the cylinder head and engine block while spinning. It lowers heat soak and helps prevent engine knock during long track sessions. Polished camshaft surfaces reduce tappet friction and cut parasitic power loss, while anti-corrosion surface treatment extends component service life.
The camshaft is CNC-ground with profile tolerance within ±0.01 mm, featuring smooth burr-free journals to ensure accurate valve timing, linear power delivery and quieter operation. CNC-balanced flywheel with evenly spaced fins minimizes high-speed vibration to protect crankshaft and bearings. The connecting rod is +0.020" longer than stock to adjust piston deck height. All components are designed for direct installation without major modifications and work seamlessly with factory mounting and cooling systems.
