Desk top dyno? Is it worth buying?

It's a lot of fun.

@ScampMike i got to looking at that 74 beak, wonder if that's more aerodynamic than the straight,flat grilles, even if only slightly

I have a old Dell laptop with Windows XP from 2002. The Dyno 2000 program won't even run on my new machines. I'll have to buy a new program one of these days when my old machine crashes.

Where did my neck go?

Morning gents, cold here this morning, 12 deg out they say we may hit 40. Sure makes to coffee taste good, or it that good to the last drop. Hope the people in Tennessee get some rain soon.

so according to the desktop software...... my combo should be 484 hp @6700 rpms and 465 ft lbs @ 5000, running with the massively overcammed cam I got. I think i will run it with the cam im actually gonna run with and see what changes

hopefully no downpours, downpours equal mudslides after fires like that

Send me your numbers, I'll run and see

 

[ScampMike]

Send me your numbers, I'll run and see

I doubt I have enough info right now to do that - not something I have at hand while at work ya know.. ?

 

[halifaxhops]

[ScampMike]

I have my doubts - they are all essentially flat air dams - I am sure it is debatable, but I would think the 70-72 Dart was best aerodynamically... it looks lower to me, smaller bumper..

could be, guess for the beak to affect it enough, itd have to be closed off

ok
just need:
Heads, valve sizes, cam shaft number, compression, stroke etc.

About as aerodynamic as a piece of plywood in the wind. Either one.

Shouldn't the air go through the grille? My grille is just an open plastic grid. As long as there is as much open space as face of radiator, it should not matter.
