The pictures of the test stands , information about them is good & is what I am looking for........ any more out there? I am getting some good ideas as everyone has built them a little different.
Ol' Ron ,
how long of run time before you start creating problems with the rings ?
My thoughts for the stand was to use it to break the cam in , have a small amount of run time on the engine , do some final checks to ensure everything looks good before taking the time to install it in the car & then find out you have problems. I could have it drive a load , how much of a load on the engine would you recommend ........ Thanks
