Ready to build your own dyno? I've redesigned the dyno into version 2.0! I've added automatic load control and taken the time to develop all the PDFs, DXFs, programming, parts lists, and more for you to make your own! Check it out here: dirtyelbowsgarage.etsy.com/listing/1560914825/diy-small-engine-dynamometer?Copy&ListingManager&Share&.lmsm&share_time=1694223616442
*It finally dawned on me where the first dynanometer was made, it had to be Vietnam... Or as my friend, a wise man, once said NOM NOM NOM a.k.a. Cookie Monster Lol*
No the flow valve is what controls the load placed on the engine. The throttle controls the airflow through the engine - more airflow, more power. So at open throttle your engine can output more power vs a half open throttle - but it only puts out power when the dyno pulls it out.
Somewhat un related question for you... any idea where I could find a pre drawn CAD file of the predator 212 engine that's accurately drawn both inside and out? It would be helpful when doing machining to those things... 😜
Hi! "Dynapack" is one of the best known hydraulic-style dynos and they handle upwards of 750hp per wheel on cars and trucks. As long as you can find a hydraulic pump that can handle the rpm and torque you plan to put through it, you can create a dyno from it. I didn't go too far into the math but if thats something your interested in, let me know. Next video of the fabrication is coming out soon!
@@DirtyElbowsGarage hey thankyou for the information and I would definitely be interested in hearing some more details and math regarding this in your next bid. Thanks
hello sir, before I want to thank you for making a video about this dyno. I am a student from Indonesia who is working on assignments related to dyno similar to what you are doing, can you help me by uploading your design file for your solidwork assignment, I will give you credit of course. thank you and best regards.
I have plans to refine the design and make these available to order. You can reach out to me on Instagram or email if you're interested further and we can figure something out. dirtyelbowsgarage@gmail.com

Can or have you made the files available to plasma cut the steel pieces? Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Is the flow valve throttling associated with the throttle position?
No the flow valve is what controls the load placed on the engine. The throttle controls the airflow through the engine - more airflow, more power. So at open throttle your engine can output more power vs a half open throttle - but it only puts out power when the dyno pulls it out.
You should measure the heat created. 1 watt for each 1 deg F raise per gallon.

Unfortunately I don't. I occasionally check the usual places like GrabCad, but so far I haven't seen anything.
Great video! Do you have a parts list?
Thanks! I don't have one compiled to give out but the next two videos on this project cover quite a bit more on the parts used.
Hi, thank you for the video! You explain very well!
I am interested in buying the drawing, how can I contact you?
Hey bud how far could you go, up scaleing this?

Ok. I cought the intentional misspelling and mispronunciation. What do I win? Dynomometer not Dynonometer
Would you make one of these for someone at a price?
