Has anyone set up an engine dyno in their home shop. I would love to, but am worried about noise, amoung other things (like cost$). Kim

Having worked here at Ford in instrumentation, I can probably answer this. There are two styles of dynamometers. First, there is the chassis dyno, and then there is the engine dyno. The chassis dyno

I believe things would get ugly very quickly with a pressure/volume based torque calculation. I don't think that approach could ever be accurate. A much better approach is to measure the rotational t

Keep in mind a simple dyno is basically a device for measuring energy output. You have to *DO* something with that energy. Increasing the pump backpressure raises the temerature of the fluid and of

Some friends of mine who used to have a shop building small bore engines, mostly BMC 'A' Series, had a home made dyno to run their race engines on. It used a drive shaft and solid rear end with disc

Here's one I've saved. I haven't found my copy of John DeArmond's 1989 or so description of his home made dyno, but I do remember that it was water cooled- you need to get rid of both the engine heat

I've set a bunch of dynos up. I can't imagine the "home shop" idea being practical for car engines, although I know a chap who has one for go kart engines. Dynos are (almost always) electrical or wat

Chet Herbert *is* a big name in drag racing history, but roller cams were in common use before he was even born. Bollee, among others, used them in the previous century. Actually, quite a few of the

That's the whole thing in a nutshell. My old Clayton chassis dyno has a water brake which heats up a 55 gallon water tank. Superflow dynos work the same way. Kahn makes a hydraulic engine dyno I've
