Description

EC Stage 2 “Ghostbuster” Performance Kit for Predator 212 Hemi


Transform Your Predator 212 Hemi into a Ghost-Killer with Proven Racing Components

EC’s newly revised Stage 2 "Ghostbuster" Kit is engineered to bring the power, torque, and reliability of the Ghost 212 and Briggs LO206 platforms to your Predator 212 Hemi. Designed using the same high-flowing specs and dyno-backed combinations as competitive racing engines, this kit delivers smoother throttle response, stronger mid-range torque, and safer high-RPM durability—all while maintaining easy start-up and linear power delivery.


Whether you're upgrading for mini bike street cruising, off-road karting, or building a reliable backup engine for sprint kart racing, this kit provides a serious performance bump with minimal guesswork.


Note: This kit is not compatible with the Predator 212 Non-Hemi engine.


What’s Included in the EC Stage 2 Kit?


1. PZ22 22mm Round Slide Carburetor

  • Flows nearly 60 CFM—a big upgrade from the stock ~35 CFM carb
  • Matched to stock and mildly ported cylinder heads
  • Better fuel atomization and throttle response
  • Based on the LO206 & Ghost 212 carb specs
  • Requires gravity-fed tank or pulse pump for proper fuel delivery
  • Avoid using stock fuel tanks with low-position outlets


2. TTS-647 Tennessee Thunderstix Camshaft (w/ 26lb Valve Springs)

  • .255" lift, 235° duration—stronger midrange and top-end than stock
  • Peak torque around 4000-4400 RPM(peak horsepower 5600-6200 RPMs)—ideal for clutch setups in both race and recreational builds
  • Maintains low-end torque for torque converter users
  • Includes 26 lb valve springs for high-RPM stability
  • For max reliability, upgrade to split locks and retainers


3. ARC 6254 Billet Connecting Rod

  • Designed for engines revving beyond 6000 RPM
  • Stock length for plug-and-play installation
  • Replaceable bearing inserts extend lifespan
  • Strengthens the rotating assembly for sustained performance


4. SK100 REV Wheel Billet Flywheel

  • Lightweight billet aluminum—essential for de-governed engines
  • Built-in 34° timing advance
  • High-energy neodymium magnets improve ignition performance
  • Reduces rotating inertia for quicker throttle response and acceleration
  • Eliminates the need for offset timing keys
  • SFI-certified safety and reliability


5. 70mm Fire Ring Head Gasket

  • More reliable seal vs thin steel gaskets
  • Handles aluminum expansion and contraction under high heat
  • Prevents head lift and compression loss under demanding conditions


6. Side Cover Gasket (Replacement)

  • Included for convenience when changing cams or rods
  • Prevents oil leaks when reassembling your engine


Recommended Oils

  • Break-In: Maxima 5W-16
  • Running: Maxima RS 0W-20


Exhaust Header Compatibility

Headers are no longer included in the kit. Instead, we’ve allowed flexibility for you to choose the best-fit header for your application.

This kit is designed for headers with:

  • .870” or larger internal diameter
  • Optimal performance: .930"–.960" ID (no muffler)
  • Recommended muffler: RLV 4106

Avoid screw-on lawnmower mufflers and "weenie pipe" setups—they restrict performance and can damage your engine.

Why Choose the Ghostbuster Stage 2 Kit?

  • Built to match or exceed Ghost 212 performance
  • Improves torque, throttle response, and RPM ceiling
  • Keeps your Predator 212 Hemi reliable and safe at higher speeds
  • Ideal for street, off-road, and sprint karting applications
  • Includes all major bolt-on internals for a proven combo

FAQ

FAQ – EC Stage 2 “Ghostbuster” Kit for Predator 212 Hemi


What does the Stage 2 “Ghostbuster” Kit do for my Predator 212 Hemi?

It boosts torque, mid-range power, and RPM ceiling while improving reliability. You get performance comparable to a Ghost 212 with safer, race-ready components.


Is this kit compatible with the Non-Hemi Predator 212?

No, this kit is specifically designed for the Hemi version of the Predator 212. It will not fit or perform correctly on the Non-Hemi model.


Do I need to upgrade the fuel system?

Yes. The included PZ22 carb requires a gravity-fed tank or a pulse fuel pump setup. Stock tank positioning may not provide proper flow.


How much RPM can this kit safely handle?

With the billet rod and REV billet flywheel, this kit supports engines turning over 5500–7000 RPM safely—depending on valve spring and tuning.


Can I use this with a torque converter?

Absolutely. This kit offers strong low-end torque that works well with torque converters, making it great for trail riding or low-speed acceleration.


Will I need to port the cylinder head?

No porting is required to see gains, but for those seeking maximum performance, porting the head can take full advantage of the upgraded cam and carb.


Are headers included in the kit?

No. This kit is designed to work best with headers that have a .870" or larger internal diameter. For peak performance, we recommend .930"–.960" ID and the RLV 4106 muffler if noise restrictions apply.


Do I need to rejet the carburetor?

In most cases, no. The PZ22 carb is tuned for stock-to-mild camshaft setups. However, tuning may be required if you're running at high elevation or with an aggressive cam or modified head.


Why is a billet flywheel necessary?

Stock cast iron flywheels are dangerous above 3800 RPM. The included REV billet flywheel is SFI-certified and built for high-performance, high-RPM safety.
