Default RE: Testing an engine.

ORIGINAL: buggymangp
i made a test stand for all my engines.
all i did was use an old savage side rail
and the savage engine mount with a small rs4 75cc tank.
i didn`t even hook up any servos.
i think this is the way to go after repairing engines without putting it
back in the car. i ran many engines this way at idle with just blimping the gas
and i run them for a minute for two.
Have you thought of turning that into a dyno?
