Thank you, I just thought it might help if some people knew a little more about me and where i come from....Interesting stuff.....

We mostly ran engines on that dyno to make sure there were no oil leaks before the engine was installed in the airframe......Sure are some nice memories other than the personal losses..
Do you remember any of the numbers of the dyno run?
No not a diesel, It runs on aviation Avgas, it was so loud because for dyno runs we just used short open exhaust pipes kind of like dragsters ! That engine was one of the biggest and was a 8 cylinder 720 Cid rated at 450 HP !Sorry to hear about your losses. Losing someone close to you is always a tough thing to have to go through. Question is, is this all there is?
Is that aircraft engine a diesel? It seems to run kinda noisy? Or is it just because it's in a inclosed area?
