I have it booked for a chassis dyno session on the 20th of May.
We did have the engine on the dyno, but only pulled to 7000 (not sure why, I wasn't there) but it was still gaining when they stopped pulling.
We have an old manual engine dyno. The start and flywheel assembly we have for a small block dodge is ancient and it is scary to think of taking it over 7000rpm. LOL.
Also, if the number seem high, again it is a manual dyno, we do not accelerate the engine through a range, it is brought to an rpm, and held there. So it is brake HP, not accelerated HP. Hopefully this helps! It more gives us an idea of what it is going to do in the car, but more so check for issues, and do break in. It worked well on this one. LOL.

Thanks Kenny!
I knew there was a reason (for stopping the pull) just not what it was!!
When I mention that the numbers seem high, it's really just me yacking. I really don't have much to compare it to other than what I read on here.
I have to be careful what all I say cause I have nothing to back it up with yet!!
I have to say, feels pretty good to be this close.
Insured it today, will be registered tomorrow.
Pretty pumped.
She has been a long old haul, so thanks to Wayne and Kenny Joss for your perseverance on this deal.
