Maybe, off the top of my head:

it measures upto 1200HP (i.e. engine output), and it provides load upto 650HP (i.e. against engine output to hold rpm steady)...

if that makes any sense.

We're you able to find a controller...?
:)

No Joe, I haven't found one yet....:frown:
I'm gonna have to save up for a new one!
I have everything but the Control Box. Dyno has been sitting on my Car Hauler for the last month or so... As far as I can tell it has less that 10 hours of use and about 200 miles run on it... I had an electrician come over and go thru the whole Dyno and so far :thumb_yello:

It was bought new in 2001, Original owner died and company went bankrupt and dyno was stored for the last 6-7 years until it was auctioned off.....It's dirty and paint is a little faded but oh well...:D
