ALBA RHINO MOTORS

 

Alba Sportsman Rhino Engine
660cc or 686cc
(depending on cylinder condition)

Our Sportsman engine makes up to 41 horsepower - that's almost double the 23 horsepower of a stock motor. You'll experience massive gains in acceleration, and our customers report top speeds approaching 60mph when using an aftermarket CDI and stock size tires.

Our most popular engine for Rhinos, our Sportsman engine is the perfect choice for anyone who wants more power and speed for their Rhino with a reliable, worry free engine. Perfect for the weekend warrrior or recreational rider who needs a boost in performance. An excellent choice to help 4-seat Rhinos with the additional load! Uses pump gas, when using the MSD Ignition, and doesn't require any additional maintenance. Just good clean reliable power!

BENEFITS
  • 75% - 85% more power over a stock motor configuration
  • 40 - 43 rear wheel horsepower (stock is approximately 23 hp)
  • Top Speeds ranging from 55-60 (w/clutch sheave & aftermarket CDI/Ignition)
  • Massive gains in acceleration and throttle response
SPECIFICATIONS
  • 11:1 compression ratio
  • FUEL - Requires high-octane race fuel if using with an aftermarket ignition (other than the MSD ignition running our map).

***Race fuel can be avoided by using our MSD ignition.  The MSD ignition will allow us to retard ignition timing and therefore allows the use of premium fuel.

REQUIREMENTS
  • Customer needs to follow "Break-In" procedures for a new motor
  • Unit needs a valve adjustment and oil change after 10 hours of use
  • Fuel Requirement: Must use race fuel unless our MSD ignition is used!  If using the MSD ignition, then they must use premium fuel.

 

Motor Kit Details:
High Compression Stock Bore Piston: We have designed a piston with an optimum compression ratio of 11:1 – (stock is 9.1:1). At 11.1 you can run premium pump gas. Also available is a 2mm oversize piston (686cc). This will add some additional power yet still run premium gas. The oversized piston option is available only if the condition of your cyclindar permits.

Custom Crafted Alba Camshaft; We worked closely with Web Cam to develop the best all around camshaft possible. We went thru 11 different designs before finding the “perfect grind”. Note that you must send us your old cam or there will be a core charge.

Customers have 2 Cam choices:
1) All around performance - good for crawling and general getting around
2) Peak horsepower - good for dunes and racing

Alba Custom Head Porting: The stock Rhino head is not designed for performance. We use porting to redesign the intake and exhaust ports. There is no room for guesswork when porting – once done there is no turning back. That’s why the research – to assure you of just the right design for optimum flow. And we make sure that everything is spot-on using our Flow Bench. We tested many combinations and found that the Rhino head ports need to be totally reshaped to build up new ports. This is very similar to what is used in Formula 1 and NASCAR race engines to extract every bit of power. When the head is finished we match the parts on your intake manifold to the head to ensure maximum flow and serious horsepower gains.
