I want to build a test stand. Not just any stand, I want it to have Elec, Fule, instrumentation  (914). If you have built one let me see. If not toss in your best ideas for this design.

Well, I don't have the instrumentation, but I built my 'run' stands using VW transporter tranny bell-housings and standard 4-wheel (V8 type) engine stands. I only installed starter motors, ignition and starter switches ...

It would be cool to have the instrumentation like the diagram you have though ... I would need set ups for both 4 and 6 cyllinder engines, so I'd need to build a separate instrumentation 'box' for each type, then could move it to either stand as needed.

Good idea you got there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)
