Default HOW RELIABLE ARE STROKER KITS

Been there Built that.

I had the 400cc Warrior stroker kit from Powroll...........its an .080 thou big bore and 4.5mm stroker crank if I remember right.

They ported and polished the head and even documented the gains on a flow bench (the only way to do it right)

.430/.430 lift cam up from the stocker .380/.382, and it totally woke up the motor.

Don't worry about "horsepower gains" its only a number. Yeah you'll be somewhere in the high 20's, if it makes a difference that it might be 28.5, 29.2, or even 30, then what-ever strokes your crank. <Grins>

You'll be able to hang with a beat 400ex's, but don't expect to kick butt on any raptor, predator, or 450 class machine.

The warrior is a great old machine, emphasis on old........

Personally, I'd save the ~$1000 money of doing the engine tear down and stroker build, sell the warrior, and put all the money towards a newer class machine like a predator. You'll be much better off in the long run.

Check out my Profile, and website for more detailed info on the Warrior. Flow Bench head porting data up there too.

no Im not. I was asking how much horse it adds and jakalwarrior said it adds 3 horse. But I talked to the guy from alba and he said it would put me at about 31 horse. Thats piped too. He said a stock warrior ...well piped has like around 17-18.
I thought you meant your ONLY getting it stroked. Yeah, if you add the cam, high compression piston, etc... at the same time itl be a good bit more than a 3hp gain.
