Huh??? Why???
I've always found it's better to just get on with something and ask wifey for forgiveness later, rather than asking permission or discussing it with her beforehand. That never ends well 'cause wives don't like stuff they don't understand.....especially if it's related or connected to something that has already dam near burnt the house down
But do carry on; I'm fascinated with this thread and have been dying to build my own engine dyno, if for no other reason than to annoy the crap out of my brain surgeon neighbor who drives an AMG but has never had the hood open and is clueless about what's in there.
I break most stuff she lets me tough so....
If you want a dyno, here you go
https://www.ebay.com/itm/800-HP-Engine- ... ctupt=trueIf I wasn't basically broke I'd probably buy it. That is the absorber I'm kind of thinking of copying.
Then a plate and adapter to bolt it to the bellhousing, plumbing, wiring, and some kind of simple stand and you're set.
I have 4 motor mounts the basically will bolt to a flat frame so thats what I'm thinking. I'll need to make a testing bellhousing and shaft or coupler of some kind.
I'm thinking I need to layout the aborber...I'm pretty sure I know what to do but I've never actually seen the inside of one so there are some guesses in the equation.
