I have a dyno question. We've been running a 438BBC with Crower mech stack 2.9
in butterfly, flowed by Kinsler, with a Kinsler barrel valve and have had very
satisfactory results in the Big Red Truck from Tx. We tried to run it on a
Stuska twin break dyno in July. We spent 10 days and wore out my cell phone
with Kinsler. We would bring the engine to 4k and start to adj the initial
hold load, go wfo and before we could touch the sweep button, the thing would
shake,spit, and die. The plugs were always wet. Pill changes made absolutely
no diff.  Ran it with a dominater in Oct and was REALLY slow. It worked fine
on the dyno with the carb. Are we trying to run it wrong with the fi on the
dyno??  Suggestions??Bernie
