Re: Engine test stand?????
 

had one a few years back while a was building circle track engines. steel angle and raided the junkyard for radiator, hoses and even a cheap-o underdash guage panel. bought a lot of core engines then and had all the extra parts laying around to mock it all up. wish i still had it.

Here's the engine test stand that I wish I had... based on the Camaro sub-frame https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

Apparently the significance of that image means nothing here...

Very few things in this hobby stimulate me like this does.
I've bookmarked this since it came back home recently.

That is really neat. Would love to see it in action.

Found a couple pictures of my stand from back when I first used it right after throwing it together about 10 years ago. Only problem I had was I had to put the headers on upside down because they wouldn't clear. (guess I should've thought about that https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif)..

this is what it looks like with an engine mounted on it the right way. The other pics I posted shows what happens when you apply a little afro-engineering https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif

and here is a pic I just took about 5 minutes ago with nothing in it. I know it's nothing special but it kinda shows what you can do with a few scrap pieces of metal and an imagination in an afternoon.
