Predator 224cc clearance for ARC 6271 Billet Rod

This is my first youtube video, i’ve done many passes already and will do many passes after this, remember all engines are mathematically different so don’t go exactly off what i do! this IS NOT a tutorial, just a video of me doing my build!

look at the sides of the stock rod, it is clearaced a bit on the sides of the rod journal to clear the lobes on the cam....I had to do the same on a replcement rod....

Good for you. The clearancing is just extra work and not really that bad. They are worth it. Lotta torque.

Did you do anything to the head? I just cleaned up the short side of the ports and used Champion rockers.

The 224 muffler is not something to throw away. It has a 7/8" inlet. I used mine on my 196 bike. It even sounds more aggressive than the stock 196 muffler.

First comment🤟 keep up the grind brotha🖤

you could have avoided all that by using EC's billet rod their rod is made specifically for pred 224 and wildcat 223 to clear the block

Good shyt bro bro definitely don't wanna breath that shit in when I took my Gov out and throttle arm I used a small vacuum to get all the excess debri and shavings

I just started my build on my 224 yesterday and im about to start clearancing. Are you able to clearance the oil dipper with the crank and everything still in the block or do you have to take it out every single time?

On the bottom of the cylinder wall you it's almost an inch up into the cylinder bore. Another thing you didn't elaborate on is the clearancing on the crank for the exhaust lobe on the camshaft.
