Paul,
I have a very low-res picture of an engine test stand in my archives
which is credited to you. I need to build just such a rig to get
torque curves for the little Suzuki three-bangers sold here, and I
don't want to re-invent the wheel. If I ask REALLY REALLY nicely,
could I have a larger drawing?

Best,
Marc de Piolenc

send me the jpg and I will see if I can dig up an iges

OK that is an ACAD 12 drawing. I'll send an IGES for ACAD 12.
Here are some pictures in the bargain. If I had it to do
over I would move the dyno closer to the ball hitch and get
the wheels just aft of the prop. Right now it requires
too much balance weight.

BTW don't get carried away on generating too much static thrust. 
Especially with a Suzuki engine. We had a guy die doing that.
Could not climb out of ground effect and hit a tree.
RPM way past the power peak after he took off.
