thegroup Posted March 11, 2005 Report Posted March 11, 2005 im just wondering if anyone has heard of or used this before? im thnking of getting one and need a little info. heres the site: http://alba.buyol.com/Item/BAN%2D400%2DSTROKER.htm Quote
01bansheeke Posted March 11, 2005 Report Posted March 11, 2005 you can probably get a better kit and get it cheaper elsewhere. i'll look around. Quote
locogato11283 Posted March 11, 2005 Report Posted March 11, 2005 id look around too. personally i wouldnt buy shit from alba. id go to a reputable builder and have something built. look into the new cheeta cubs. Quote
thegroup Posted March 11, 2005 Author Report Posted March 11, 2005 hey hey hey, i got most of my stuff for my warrior from them. they aint that bad of a place and have had no complains or problems. ya, some of their shit is high priced, but still good Quote
Indubitably Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 I agree that some of their stuff is good and all but you will get a better built motor for cheaper somewhere else. Alba doesn't build really strong motors. They had a 400 stroker on nitrous that only produced 80 hp. A good builder can get 90+ on meth with a 350. Quote
rocketboy Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 (edited) there article they had in dirtwheels awhile back stated this 400 stroker made 70hp which isa pretty sad state of affairs for a high compression big bore stroker banshee alba has ridiculous prices and i never heard they have ever made fast anything maybe that stupid looking craptor with pretty flame stickers and a jet engine strapped to it what a dumb idea IMO Edited March 12, 2005 by rocketboy Quote

iceman Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 I have heard alba doesnt build very good engines. A guy in the dunes said he was very pissed with the way his engine turned out and it was done by alba. Quote

MudSlinger09 Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 i never could find the video of that rocket powered raptor , anyone got a quick link to it? Quote
RNBRAD Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 there article they had in dirtwheels awhile back stated this 400 stroker made 70hp which isa pretty sad state of affairs for a high compression big bore stroker banshee alba has ridiculous prices and i never heard they have ever made fast anything maybe that stupid looking craptor with pretty flame stickers and a jet engine strapped to it what a dumb idea IMO 337849[/snapback] What would you say about a 400 stroker making 70hp with a powerband 5k rpm wide and a 400 stroker making 90hp that's 2k rpm wide? Is one better than the other? Something most people don't ever even think about. Quote
