Just a question about dyno cooling ... did anyone find that they had to take their hood off for dyno? Just because with the fan trying to blow under the car didn't seem it was enough. I decided to take my hood off when i started seeing the engine temperature slightly rising above half. and from there it stayed below the half mark. This is my I need a vented hood and would like to make a vented scooped/venter piece that goes inbetween the headlights
thats a good idea .the more cooling the better, since your making hard pulls in 4th gear with lots of load from the dyno, while the fans creating enough wind for 5 mph... lol,, i never quite figured out why the dyno manufactures did it like that.....

Looks good. A very fun and practicle FB it sounds like.

The rotary might not make the most torque, but look at that curve, there isn't much of one. Nice flat torque curve.

And the rotary = smooth, I love how the power smoothly goes from the bottom of the graph to redline, no jitters really, no flatspots or anything wierd.

I love it.
