Phasing is vitally important at the initial generation point. But I can't say about
plugging your generator into the grid down line somewhere. I have a friend who was
standing near an 8ft dia. alternator in one of the generation plants here in Los Angeles
when it went slightly out of phase and sheared the anchor bolts off the concrete floor.
Thanks Bruce!

All this electrical stuff is too expensive, too heavy
and too much trouble.
I have decided to fall back on the old prop dyno as Matt suggested.
2 foot dia. prop tips will go supersonic at 6000
to 7000 RPM absorbing as much HP as the turbo charger
turbine can put out. Much cheaper to build.
We will mount the G.B. housing in eight ball bearings and allow
it to rotate slightly and use a load cell to measure
the torque.
