I’m charging 750 for the first day. That includes getting on and off the dyno, break in, filter checks, lash loops and jet changes.
If you require me to get into the carb for emulsion changes it’s an extra 100 bucks for a single 4 and 150 for two fours.
If you want me to do timing curve measurements that’s an extra 200 dollars and that includes getting a custom curve in your distributor.
For the latter stuff with all the tuning you really need two days to do it right. So it’s 1200 for two days and I cut the above costs in half.
To really do the tuning it takes two full days especially if we are breaking in a cam and we have to install inner springs and such.
Time goes by fast.
If all you want to do is break in the cam/engine, verify no leaks and make some power pulls and make jetting changes you can do it in one day.
I will say if things go sideways like oil leaks and the like it eats up time real quick. So if you are assembling the engine getting it sealed is a big deal. You can eat up a ton of time pulling an intake, doing all the clean up and prep and resealing it.
You can test intakes and headers and carbs and spacers. I’ll make as many pulls as you want in a day but making maximum pulls isn’t as important as seriously considering the data coming off the dyno and making correct tuning changes.
