The $500 for a dyno session is worth every penny. 3 hours on the water + gas running back and forth or 30 minutes at a dyno. Plus you get to find all the leaks instead of a murder scene the first time you take it out.
When someone asks how many ponies (every stop) you have an answer instead of a guessing game. |
Where are you located? Maybe someone on here could shed some light on a shop that dynos that you weren't aware of. 500$ is the going rate here also. Especially an engine that is relatively mild (no huffer, ect)
Might be worth asking around. And yes I agree with what's said above, the money spent will be well worth it. You'll know exactly what you have and that it runs as it should. |

I wish I lived near a couple of the guys on this board like Mild Thunder or Mike Tkach! when I walk in to the dyno shop they will see me coming lol
You'd then want superchargers, intercoolers, and bigger drives too. :D |
Run it on a stand to make sure timing is all set, no water/fuel/ oil leaks...then if you are uncomfortable with your tuning abilit and/or want to save money by zeroing in on prop choice needed...bring it to a dyno.
Nothing worse and more expensive then putting a motor on a dyno that has some sort of problem like leaks or etc that requires time or tear down. Where are you located ? Maybe someone knows of a good dyno shop that will help tune and not charge you a ton. Edit in: Be forewarned, some dyno shops will get you a power # that's not correct and won't help you tune...which turns into a big waste of money. |
Located near toronto

If a rebuilt engine is set up on a stand is there much difference than being run on a dyno?
can you do all the same tuning on the stand? Dyno time around here is very expensive but run on an engine stand is much cheaper |
New pistons bore 30 over new cam new bearings nw valves and springs

if by rebuilt you mean a refresh like bore job with same compression pistons,same cam,valve job ,rings&bearings,timing set than a run stand will probibally do the job but if compression ratio,cam or heads,induction system were changed a dyno is a good tool to help sorting the tune.just my humble opinion.

So how much more power is made at an AFR of 12.8 on a dyno compared to an AFR of 12.8 in a boat if same exhaust/setup is used?
Just curious |
