Your lucky to even have a  dyno. My auto tech program wouldent put one in because we had construction tech next door, and i dont think construction wanted a car through thier wall. With the asses in my class that would have happened too.

Ha! Too loud?  Ever hear a Chevy 350 with 400hp and a huge blower with long tubes and no lers?  That was a CLASS for us.  We also had a class in which we dynoed street cars to inspect a mod's affect on driveability and emissions...so most of the cars ran with no exhaust....just headers.  Yeah...too loud...tell them to go cry about it....like we did to the A/C class sharing the same garage.

you lucky s my school was too poor to even afford a dyno! we would of used it to put out montie carlo through its paces! it was a 87 montie with a 454 bored 30 over with a 600 cfm carb i belive. but there were many vacume leaks and had some ideling issues. but by the time i graduated we never found it. plus we had a 67 mustang in there and we put a 1993 ho motor in it and were doing all the wiring before we sent that over to auto body. needeless to say we never got the wiring done. but we got the motor to fire for a little bit:hick:
