Dynojet 248C - Drum Wieght

Anybody know how much the drums weigh on this dyno?

 

I'll be tuning a car tommorow night at 530.. call me then and I'll get you the info..

 

Conbined total weight is around 3200 pounds I believe. Correct me if I am wrong T-Bone. I could look it up tomorrow.

 

The answer, will help us understand what kind of loading the motor sees. I think most people will be surprised.

 

Be suprised on how much it actually loads the motor???
If you do a pull in 4th gear on a NA honda(under 200 whp) it takes forever.
As for the drum weight I think it is actually really close to 3200 pounds combined.

 

I thought it was 3000lbs each drum. The total weight of the entire dyno is 8000lbs.

 

I think the rollers are 2000lbs, but its a big roller... Or you could dyno on a mustang, dynapak or Dyno dynamics in real time.

 

I can find out tomorrow ,We have one at work.I know it loads it alot more than if you were driving it down the track.Because its always to rich after you get it off the dyno.

Isn't it better like that then? Because what if you're driving on the streets with your gf and gf's big momma, then the load evens out?

 

Yeah ,OK your right.I never thought of that.LOL In fact you might even need to add some fuel.

 

Any definite answer?

Does it mean dynojet would yield lower reading because if its weight?
