Cut bellhousing/starter section off and made a 10" spacer/adapter to the dyno bellhousing mounting plate.

SuperFlow 901 engine dyno.

Use a B-series front trans case half. Have an aluminum spacer block to mount that to the dyno. For H motors I use a H2B adapter. Nothing for the K's yet. Super Flow 901

How does the SF deal with the reverse rotation.Do you need to relocate the strain guage or re-plumb the brake?

Most all except the early absorbers are ported for reverse rotation. The early versions are easy to modify. Does require straight blade rotor. If you remove the capacity adjustment the rotor can be seen without disassembly.

Yes, the dog-bone style strain gauge needs to be moved to other side and recalibrate.
