Does anyone know of a good engine dyno in Yorkshire that would be able to test a C20XE on TB`s??

Well Lane Turbos in Bradford may do it, but Damien at Daytuner did a good job on my old Ecotec/megajolt/bike carb setup.

Well Lane dont have their rolling road anymore I've been told?

Do you literally mean engine dyno, or rolling road? I dont know of any engine dyno's. Daytuner is in harrogate now iirc? There's also 'The Racing Line' in Halifax.

Just the engine dyno needed before i fit back in the car.

Well Lane only had/have a rolling road i think.

Cheers Dan - I (unwisely) assumed laptoprob's engine was already installed.
Daytuner are in Harrogate - just off Ripon Rd - but I can only recall their having bike & car rolling roads, I'm afraid. Off back in my box...

Cheers Steve,
i tried Wilcox all day but no reply. Will keep trying as they look exactly what i need.

Andi,
do Bogbros have an engine dyno?

Earlston, Berwickshire maybe a bit far north but would be well worth the effort
Specialises in the smaller Vauxhalls but has done a few red tops including a 2.2 one in his 4 wheel drive Nova

If I remember rightly, Dynobike in Malton have an engine dyno (I know it was for bikes but not sure about car engines).

They also have rolling roads for cars and bikes.

Have you tried the guys at http://www.dtafast.co.uk in Salford. I think they used to have one but may now only have a hub based RR.
