Re: Thinking of building a engine dyno.

Thanks guys for the input it is a real help, I think the project is a bit at the limits of my skill so I need all the input everyone can offer. Harvey that sounds like a great way to do the run.

My reason for testing EGT was more to find the differences in power in each cyclinder is producing. I think it will be a case of read them and see if there is a major difference between each one if so go loooking why.

Okay are you guys siting down I am wondering if its possiable to run one cyclinder for the big first stages of development. Have the other 5 turned off and maybe plug out valves removed. The logic is that I don't have to spend 6 times the money, for example 6 different ram pipes for each trial.
So what do you think is it possiable or just a dumb idea?
Tony
