Dumpster fire engine build runs!
In this video we build the a running 212 go kart motor out of a bunch of random spare parts! It was pretty difficult to make everything work together and we were looking to make at least one functional motor out of a bunch of random parts we've accumulated over time. We have big plans for this thing to go onto a mini atv as one of our classic budget builds like we did way back.

In this video, we turn this into this, alright guys. This is kind of this idea, out of nowhere that we just came up with we've had all these engine parts, so he's kind of accumulated over just working out stuff and building stuff. This was from the hundred fifty dollar off-road go-cart. This is the Jax 200 that was originally on Sputnik and it's been an absolute lemon.
The whole time we've owned it, but we're gon na try to do some, like frankensteining with predator engines, to see if we can make one that's kind of cool. So they have all these parts we'd like to see if we could use like the Mitsubishi head or something because there's by maybe some different airflow, maybe we'll make a different sounding predator. We have a Tillotson flywheel, we'll see if that fits, and then we have like a flat top piston and stuff like that. We're just going to install that we've had lying around, so there should be a fun little video.
I think the first thing we're going to do is start assembling the bottom end of this engine and then we'll just try to figure out the heads in all everything else. We'll needs to alright, so we're out of Pistons, so we're doing this trailer park style. Alright, some piston from some engine going in. If you came to this video to watch like how to correctly install one of these, I'm afraid you might not be in the right place.
Alright, so you got the rock bolts torqued down, and our first test is a seat. If this Tillotson 500 fits we've actually done a couple of tilts and bills with El Tigre and with the race bike, those will be upcoming, video series. So, let's see if it fit, it seems like the tapers the same yeah, so that fits on perfectly actually. So these aren't a lot less likely to explode under, like we're not going to be putting like a big old cam in this or anything like that.
So we don't really have to worry about it, but still this would be an upgrade. There's a lot. There's a lot more going on with these, as opposed to stock primer ones. So it's definitely an upgrade.
Okay, yeah, that's pretty good! Everything fits up on there all night left. It will probably definitely get this torque down the spec, but for now they don't hold together. So I think what we're going to do now is we don't have a side cover? I don't know where he went off to, but we have a side cover here and I think we're going to take off part of this GX 200 and then definitely use the side cover well. We might also use a cam, maybe on this, got something different going on with the cam, so we have a stock 212 cam right there, so we'll be able to compare all right.
This is a predator cam and then this is a gx-250 nur and it's a Honda farc. So it's probably a little bit higher quality, so we're gon na toss that in right now, well the cam that was originally on Sputnik. Now his new life, along with the side cover, actually will slap that alright. Now this is an interesting energy bug, guys interesting, Hey, obviously like all the like. These are all just basket cases, so we can put something together and make something out of nothing right as well. So now we're. Finally, the Mitsubishi by the looks of it. Everything in here is pretty much just GX, two hundred and Predator, so that should be that'd.
Be a holy goddess, thanks rusty, so uh yeah. Now I'm just handing this bad boy apart. I don't know if the heads gon na fit because it is very, very different yeah. It was weird it'd, be really cool if this fit books.
I've really, I haven't seen many of these Mitsubishi engines. I've seen I mean I've, seen some Subarus and stuff like that, but like some, what fans stuff like that, you know Mississippi she's aren't too common. At least this is very interesting: okay, holy cow, that is red. That's cool: all of this is gon na fit our predator, though it might hey.
That's sick, whoa holy. That's some beefy valve right there, all right. So in order to get the head off, we got to take this valve train out of here. This is like probably one of the coolest setups I've ever seen.
I mean it's, you adjust the valve lash here and then there's the springs, it's kind of heavy design, but it is really cool. I really hope this fits on the predator. That would be really cool. Okay, guys so there that goes wow.
It is okay, those are sick, they're, like Chrome, the pushrods off homemade impact. It's actually really exciting. I'm glad y'all are able to come along on this journey. Okay Mitsubishi starts out all create hardware.
Chrome, push push rods, good, it's weird any flight, you'll, this room, it survives you Tillotson heads, it's pretty cool. I like problem is there's some kind of wacky exhaust and intake flange you're going on here. It's kind of just like I don't know. I actually think I'm mikuni would bolt straight up to that without an adapter.
Oh okay, this is like I don't know it's it's similar, it's similar, but also very different. We might have some insight. We might have some accidental high compression things going on. Oh, oh, wait.
Huh, like it's kind of it's very similar, let's see, let's um, let's see so, let's put out, I believe if we put a two twelve head gasket on, I think if we have a two twelve head, gasket used, of course, maybe a Christmas miracle. This thing around the dowel pins are different sizes, oh and there's two on the bottom there - and this is diagonal - oh wait, Kenya's movies, maybe not oh, the gasket. You can't take them around. I think you can well.
The problem is these are different sizes? Did I care about is if the holes line up ideal holes line up? Oh, okay, no dowels! No, no gels is not my favorite plan. Let's try. Let's start it, can we do the heads like? I can't wait to work a reason fire out of that. How does a head gasket all right, uh yeah, so with a little bit of persuasion? We have the Mitsubishi head on here. God only knows if it's gon na make compression, but we're gon na give it a shot. I'm just gon na set the valve lash to kind of loose. It's actually pretty loose right now. Oh wait! The okay! The push rods aren't even there, so we got to put those in believe it or not.
We didn't really film a lot of this cuz. We were kind of sketched out because the head gaskets are quite different actually, and I mean it actually makes a lot of compression. I set the valve lash manually. This is some sweet valve train that it's a very cool design head.
The intake and exhaust runners are only about this long, so I feel like this. This could actually really efficient on a larger bore cylinder with a bigger carburetor on so now we're gon na do is we're gon na hook up the exhaust actually this rounds. This is like the same exact size as a go power: sports mikuni adapter. So I feel like if we remove these studs and get a mikuni, we could just bolt it straight to that, and then we have the stock muffler that we're just gon na put on for now.
So I guess I'll hold the coil up put the valve cover on and then we'll be able to crank it over by hand and then stray some starter fluid in it and see if we can get it to come alive. Okay, so we got this heinous muffler on and the side cover on and we're gon na see what happens. Gon na get some starter fluid in there right. Hey, we got a runner.
We got a runner boys yeah. I do one more yeah. Let's do another work, holy cow, yep, hey yeah, that's promising! That's actually! Really it feels solid and like it feels pretty balanced. It has a wheel in it by the way, all right guys.
So we got the GX 200 this in one of our earliest videos. I tell you only go watch it, but the audio is so bad. You probably shouldn't so we mounted this carburetor here I used. So you know in predators, sandwiches, an intake port and where the carburetor goes, there's those plastic things.
I mean a sickly like put two of those on top of each other, and I cut them out it like right in here. You can kind of see them stack together. Cuz, this head isn't really friendly for this carburetor, but the port's line up so we're gon na do that. It's add a little bit of an angle so we'll have to see.
But now we're going to do is we're gon na bullets on our side cover here. This is a funky looking engine hey this thing runs love. You have you actually insane, but it should sound, pretty cool. It's fun doing something all right: let's put her on our engine soon, okay, so since the Honda has like a little spacer on it, we just need the little starter cup thing just switch over.
They think so I don't know why we're messing around with this stuff of a good, you know, go their own inches or whatever, but hey it's fun. I think we've got a little ATV who I throw this on. I think it'll be a fun little billet. Alright guys so believe it or not. We got that engine to run. We're super happy with how it turned out. We didn't use ankle Powersports parts in this video, but they can go Power scores we just actually till it's in parts from the engines that gave us. So that's sweet, be sure, you're checking out ten and we're power right out the box, pretty cool such four to twelve stock class racing.
So thank you guys for watching and we're actually gon na do kind of a budget build. We don't know why, but we got this free ATV here you can see, we got a go fire sports engine playing welding on there and then it's gon na meet our dumpster fire engine. So see you next time give it a thumbs up. Hope you, like the in the middle of the week uploads if we have kind of actual videos like this think we're gon na toss them up now.
So thanks for watching be sure to subscribe, see ya.
I saw your hoodie and my first thought was to say bless you!
seems like it acts a bit lean, maybe that carb is limiting it's potential
These are the type of videos I enjoy watching. Basic wrenching, nicely done gentlemen.
WHY DO YOU SAY like every second fucking word, like ay like yer like
Remember being a kid and having an imaginary friend and your parents said they are not real and to get actual friends? What do you call god? 😉 think for yourself kids. Use your head. Don’t need to be pastors alter boys
I bet all those parts were manufactured in the same factory. Good to have faith. Like the imaginary beliefs in this invisible being people call god. Lol. Kids.
Y’all should get the NOS kit on amazon and do a review on it with a mikuni carb
Y'all need to put that rotary engine on that go kart behind you guys
Mitsuonda? Hondsubishi? Mitsondabishi? More frankenbuilds please! And that is crazy that it actually fired first pull…
you give new hope to us engine Builders. Thanks guys for doing the grunt work.
Trailer park style huh? Well, I resemble that comment and found it offensive. And here I was a couple of weeks ago Raven on you guys absolutely boasting on your intelligence and that just took a major nosedive into a block of concrete. Yeah that sucked. I wonder how many other hundreds of thousands of people you may have offended what's wrong with living in a trailer? I assure you that I don't live with Mommy and Daddy. Get out on your own and see where you end up
I’m a 23 y/o who for the past 3 years has been starting to work and rebuild motorcycles (old Hondas) and trucks, vws and jeeps (cj7 w/ v8) awesome seeing you guys do way cooler stuff. Inspiring to say the least
It seems that we haven't had very good experience with Mitsubishi car engines as it seems that any engine below a 4G54 (2.6 litre) is short lived as the Saturn 4G32 (1.6 litre) engine my dad had in his old van which would last about 150,000 kilometres between rebuilds.
Yet I went to school with someone whose parents had a 4G54 engine in their Australian built Mitsubishi Sigma & it started burning oil at 138,000 kilometres, yet I hear of others doing twice as much as that with the same engine.
My uncle got 3 years out of his Verada 3 litre V6 then he went back to driving Holdens too, I'm not sure if the same car has the original engine when I've seen them for sale with 300,000 kilometres on them or if they've been rebuilt or replaced.
I know the Taiwanese built Mazda & Ford engines had that trouble in the 1980's,it was a bad valve stem oil seal design which caused oil burning in them.
When I built a Nissan RB30DE engine I used the pistons out of the RB25DE engine so the compression ratio would be maintained with the 24 valve cylinder head,the ring design was also different as the top piston ring was thinner in the RB25 engine.
I contacted ACL in Australia about the rings & they were,you guessed it ,the same as the 0.040" oversized Mitsubishi 4G63 piston rings !
Really cool like this kind of content but please tell me why you guys didn't make an actual exhaust for that thing
Didn't measure cam lobe height, just said "Honda cam should be better quality." better cam is the one with the most lift & duration.
I'm down with no alignment dowels tho. That's properly livin on tha edge!
the 208cc i have puts out 14.7hp stock, but i put a PZ30 and a muffler i made onto it, tested it and it is putting out more then 20hp, i haven't adjusted the carburetor and never run it past 4000rpm as 8.5mph for every 1000rpm gets it going good. like 4th gear on a yz250. 6K around 50mph on the top end is a lot, but for getting around town the gearing gives it vary nice gas mileage. some engines come stock with heavy valve springs.
That's what I call a frankenstein engine … been building them for decades 🙂
is this franken-engine a tillotsen or a predator? predatson!
you should make more Frankenstein motors that one sounded pretty mean
Wow.I get to be #100…in 1 freakin hour.Awesome guys,as always.
The whole time through the video I was wondering how it was going to run without a stator/pickup haha
So what your saying is people from a trailer park are dumb and don't know anything right .yes I do live in a trailer park….I really hope you don't fill that way..GOD bless
Really good candidate for boost, since between the dished piston and the hemi head, you considerably lowered the compression ratio.
That thing is sick! sounds like a champ, lets mount it, run it, and see if it can be turbo'd!
did a lawn mower motor swap today and had to "make some shit work" to get em together. but i miiiiiight have put the blade on backwards idk yet haha, so this was refreshing to watch
Sick motor guys you should take it ro kart fab to see hp and torque
oh, but i didn't saw that head swap coming, outstanding move, maybe it has some advantages
Back to our roots with the budget build! Pt. 2 of this build will be out Wednesday when we put it on a mini atv! School is over though so expect the first rotary shifter kart video next Sunday!
