Need a solid 9 hp motor recipe...

I think you can safely push 9hp with a tav on a mini. Your not putting nearly as much stress on it as if it were on a heavy gokart with a smaller engine. Hard launches stress them the most

See supernova's reply.

Add 14cc head from a GX 160 clone ( 5.5 hp )
Aftermarket air cleaner and velocity stack.
Header.
4 deg offset timing key
And reject the carb as required ( 91 jet is probably all you need )
See the cheater spring mod to keep you governer but allow you to rev to 5000. At that speed your stock engine will make the power you want. Increase spring tnsion on your TAV secodary to keep it from shifting up too soon and you will make better use of the modifications sugested.

Search these sugestions lots of good info posted ( and I have typed this combination a lot lately, it works )

Would the same combo have like results on a Predator 212? Couldn't compression be gained with a thinner head gasket instead of a milled or 14cc head?
