![]() ![]() One thing I don’t like about the DuroMax 208cc is the kill switch. The idea of the kill switch is to cut off the engine in case you need to stop immediately. You can easily find many aftermarket parts for this engine as well. Like the Predator 212cc, the DuroMax 208cc is quite easy to tune and upgrade. But you also get one extra HP (7HP) with this engine. Moreover, it comes with an electric start rather than a recoil start, a great addition.Īnother thing to note is that the DuroMax 208cc weighs a bit more, at 46lbs. The DuroMax 208cc is about $30 more expensive than the Predator 212cc. The main difference between these two engines is probably the price. They both have a horizontal shaft, are air-cooled 4-stroke engines, and can reach up to 40mph. The DuroMax 208cc shares many similarities with the Predator 212cc. The Predator comes out on top with an average rank of 1.25!ĭuroMax is less known than the Predator, but their 208cc engine is a great alternative to the latter. I will dig deeper into this topic in the below part.īefore moving on to the detailed review of each product, I ranked them based on different aspects, with 1 being the best and 4 being the worst. This is actually up to your preference as 2 stroke engines also have their own benefits. 4 stroke – they’re more reliable, last longer, and are less noisy than a 2-stroke engine.6.5 HP (or more) – anything higher than 8 HP can hardly be found at this price and is not necessary for a DIY go-kart.Horizontal shaft – this is the most common type of engine for go-karts.A perfect engine for your go-kart in this price range is usually: These small block engines will do the job just fine for a typical homemade go-kart. ![]()
