I think you may be making a mistake putting it on a dyno with only 150 miles on the new engine. Mine was just rebuilt and the engine builder told me not to put it oh a dyno untill the engine was properly broke-in. I think he said at least 3,000 miles. Reason being they are going to rev it to the moon on the dyno. Another reason he mentioned is the engine won'tperform to it'sfull ability untill after it's broken-in. Maybe someone more knowledgable cancomment on this.

Yeah you guys are probably right. The motor is brand new and only has about 150 miles on it so i guess well see.I will post the results when i get them. If anyone else wants to put there .02 cents in go ahead.

I was just thinking the very same thing. They will need to get that engine into the power range of RPM's to dyno it. That could be over 5 grand. And for a fresh rebuild, I would not put an engine through that torture without properly breaking it in.
