Re: Hey Masher,should i enter
STEEL REINFORCED CONCRETE......saw one of the test rooms at Grumman Aerospace years back....actually very cool......super heavy duty steel mount on the floor buried in concrete as well. They would bolt an F-16 jet motor to it and run the thing for months non stop at max rpm until it exploded to see how well it would hold up under severe conditions. The outside wall of the room was thin concrete no steel and was backed up by a large field so when the engine grenades it blew out wards into the restricted field. JC needs that set up just for the 5 second dyno runs before the motor pops

At least we know where to find our engine builder. And he will duct tape it right up for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
