4-Cycle Kart Racing Engines, Local Option 206 CC
The LO206 class is one of the most affordable and competitive classes in karting. The LO206 engine is reliable and the maintenance is straight forward. Horsepower is around 9 bhp depending on dyno and air quality, making it a good entry level karting engine.
Hand-built in Milwaukee, WI. - using precision tooling and fixtures to achieve unparalleled repeatability.
Factory sealed short-block with ground cam and controlled piston pop-up (reducing compression variance)
Simplified IKF/WKA rule set designed to maintain a stock configuration right down to the factory shipped carburetor jets. This is NOT today’s standard Animal rule set.
LO206 Documentation
Compression ratio is less than 9:1 so regular pump gas (non-ethanol only) works fine with this engine. Factory timing is 29 degrees BTDC. 8.8 hp / 10 ft lbs torque, max 6100 rpm.
