I got a Factory Spec brand Banshee crank.
Anyone know about these?
How good are they?

Well since you actually have it ? . I Looked at those (attractive pricings and claimed quality) then asked around about them. A well known west coast 350 tuner . told me that the ones he had 'looked at' for customers, looked OK but required a shocckingly low amount of Press pressure to dissasemble. and trueness was not even close.. and one customers' 'Factory spec' crank did snap in half even after fettling... for reasons unknown though.
Do check that the bearings are actually japanese Although their Brochure babble claims Koyo bearings and 'genuine' Yama rods.
Again, as you own it.. get it trued and welded.. and don't even think avbout subsequent rebuilds on it.
Be under no illusion that it's the equal of any OEM crank
