Cool video Kostya.


Brian I would be curious what the loss is during the transfer to the wheels. Especially with that nice box you have it plugged into.It would be cool as hell to get some real world feedback. Although it still wouldn't be as accurate due to it not being tuned when you did the bench dyno. I have always heard that it is closer to 30-40% using a Water Brake Dyno. At least that was what I was told when the motor that was built for my 65 was bench dyno'd.

Car looks great Brian I can't believe you got it all together for the Classic. I wish I could've been there

Ethan, I think it depends a lot on how well both dynos are calibrated. There are a lot of "happy" dynos out there that give inflated numbers. Darren keeps his engine dyno calibrated. Jack, on the other hand... The same is true of chassis dynos, there are "happy" ones and ones that are accurate.
AJ Claims the loss is 12%, and I believe that's going from his engine dyno to the chassis dyno he uses across the street. But I don't know how well either of those is calibrated...
I think the best use of a dyno is in tuning a motor, not necessarily comparing to other people's numbers that were done on different dynos. Also, They are useful if you make a change to the motor to see a relative change on the same dyno.

Not as nice as yours but still very hardcore!!

DO NOT FORGET!!!!!

I don't really have a good place to mount a video camera yet, but I am planning on getting a roll bar, so that would work well for mounting.

I will be here waiting.

here's when you first upgraded you engine waay back when.
