I want to mazimize the tuning of my carb'd 2056. Short of seat-of-the pants tuning, I figure using a chassis dyno is the way to go. I haven't checked to see where the nearest one is or how much it will be, but after spending all this time and money building it, I'd hate to leave any power on the table. I'm just not sure how you go about using it to tune the engine.
I assume I should have the engine pretty well broken in and running well with the carbs jetted as good as my seat-of-the-pants dyno can tell. Do I go there with a variety of idle and main jets, air correctors, venturis, etc and start swapping things out one at a time based on a baseline run? |

At the last PCA meeting I saw an APP for a Draud???? You accelerate for a set distance and imput your weight (cars weight not your weight) and it calculates your HP
Anyone here more familier with this APP? |
