Hi guy,
I just can't contain myself I'm excited because i'm buying a chassis dyno. I' payin it off over the next couple months but it will be perfect for all my cars.
The first one i am going to tune is my wives lorenz convertible (FSM niki chopped into moke like machine)which i just put a minnow fish carb on in prep for the turbo i have for it. I hope with the turbo it will get over 20rwhp. I love doing the bizzar.
Next will be the opel gt w g200w once i have carbs, the my vw type 3 Ute once the body is back on.
Then i think my yamaha XS650 after i hardtail it.

I know i'm mad but i thought i would over share

Yeah you're actually mad!

I remember my mate looking into one and some use water for resistance against the roller; is that the same as yours (did that make sense?)

Hi,
Its an autocraft don't remember the model, it works with a large disk brake which is air operated but controled by a speed control. you set the speed and no resistance is met till it reaches that speed then the dyno holds that and throtle can by opened and rpm stays constant and the analog gauge reads kw

At least thats my understanding at this time.
