I can't drive across the continent and into a different country to dyno my engine. But I have to say your facebook posts are awesome thanks for sharing the engines you are building with us!
Well now I'm gonna have to follow that page...

For the benefit of anybody interested including me, I have some questions. Specifically what do you get for $500. 1)Are oil psi and temp, coolant temp, 8 egt's, vacuum and A/F ratio all included? 2)I have 2 4150's on a tunnel-ram, does that change the cost? 3)Can I use my ignition box, coil and fuel press regulator? 4)Do I get to use the dyno for 1 day for misc parts testing? e.g-carbs, headers, intakes? 5)I am using pump gas (93). Do you run out of a barrel or do I bring my own?

That's a great deal from a very smart shop. Wish I was closer I would be on that!

For real? They offer a righteous deal and you want to nickel & dime it even further?

... I have a shop near me that does it that way. $500 for the day, but only change for what you use. didn't mean to offend anyone.
While BEST may not be known for being cheap, this is CHEAP IMO. Look at it as an opportunity to learn to evolve your program. I'm not here much anymore but, I've seen a lot of your posts are about getting more from your parts combo. Look at Rick Ross's car as a good example, or Don Gentry's old Duster. Lots of different dyno's can give you lot of DIFFERENT numbers. For some, it's nice to know what the true ultimate potential of their motor is. Again, maybe it's a good opportunity to learn something.

I agree, but that's not the dyno i'm goin to. I have a shop 15 min. away with an engine dyno as well as a chassis dyno. i'v given up on getting the pump gas 408 into the 9's in a 3300# full interior car. my new program is in the works with reworked heads by Dwayne Welder to start and a full rebuild of the 408 to a 410 13.5-14:1 comp. and a regrind by bullet of the cam again. the best the 408 did was 10.35@130 in a street trim that could be driven most anywhere. just gonna put it in the 9's and sell the car. cant afford this hobby any longer.

I would save money that it sounds like you don't have, and sell it as a pump gas 10.30's car. Probably worth as much, if not more than as a race gas 9.90 car that needs Full cage, cert, license, etc, etc. and is likely to appeal to a much narrower audience than the pump gas deal would. If you want to go 9's throw a cheap 150 squirt on it. Best of both worlds.

Can you mount an engine on a dyno and do testing in 4 hours? You are very fast. Doug

500 to dyno a motor is an awesome deal,i spent 800 plus fuel.it was worth every penny we found out what the motor wanted.spending a day at Best with tuning help for 500 is a deal.after reading some of these posts about money ,that's why we cant get blocks and heads most Mopar guys not all are cheap.
EXACTLY!

Chuck,
Brian V. here. If I can get this deal for $500 Vs. $850, I will go ahead with ordering the Logo Valve covers and cover the cost difference. Great looking Pieces and good way to advertise. The attached picture is from Best Machine Facebook Page. I'll give you a call. Thanks, Brian V.
Done Deal
