ENGINE DYNO TESTING

Quote from: WOODY@DDLLC on October 20, 2012, 11:42:41 AM
Murphy will still be trying to run things! :evil: :-D

Midget, et all,

In a blatant attempt to circumvent the will & mischief of the aforementioned Mr. Murphy, (perhaps a 'minor' demon within racing Christianity?), in addition to prayers to St. Edmund, St. Mowog (Paf), etc, etc, I submit for your perusal the following site:

http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/general/hrdp_0607_performance_engine_dyno_testing/viewall.html

I am not a big fan of re-inventing the wheel and this article lays it out as well as anything I have ever seen on the subject.   Read the whole article and pay particular attention to the comments about test results for "Pro-built engines with guaranteed Hp".   Also of note are comments about the TOTAL cumulative Hp increase possible with gains of 1% + 1% + 1%, etc.  Gains of 1% are typical net gains for a particular dyno run and 1% usually cannot be discerned by the driver or timing devices at the track.............

The further opportunity that the engine dyno presents to resolve other problems BEFORE they become minor annoyances OR major catastrophies is simply a given...........

Don, can I get a witness?


Any article that starts with one of Harlold's quotes is worth reading.

We're on hiatus until St. Dema has exorcised the valve train demons.

Nice posters, Dean, but why do they both say the same thing and why is it when I cover one eye, one goes away?    :roll:

Well, Chris, after looking at your picture, I'm baffled as to why that might be.
