Default Re: chassis dyno

It gives power @ wheels ,I know on Dynojet they have setting that after pull put car in neutral and let driveline and dyno drum coast and it calculates % driveline uses. Dynojet told me figure 25% at least. If you have reverse pattern valve body don't attempt going back to neutral.

I looked at your post again I may have misunderstood your question chassis dyno calculates HP by how fast you accelerate the drum thats how they measure Dynojet has 3500lbs. drum.Engine dyno has whats called torque link attachted to dyno brake which calculates TQ.torque link is stretched and calculates TQ. from amount of stretch of tq link and converts HP from that,Super Flow now calls them load cells.
