Just about done putting my new 468 together. Down to paint and accessories.
What typicaly does the dyno guy need as far as accessories? Alt, Starter, Water Pump?
And how about plumbing the Intercooler?
You need to talk to the dyno operator and see what his setup requires.He may have a water pump.I do not think the alternator or starter would be used. He should have a water source in the dyno room for the intercooler, if not,get a long garden hose and plumb it, make sure he has a drain.
Normally they supply the juice, but most Dyno shops also ask that you bring your own fuel, water pump, flywheel/flexplate, and water outlets just as you would have it on your ride/boat (boat not having a water pump). This way you keep the dyno numbers as real as possible (your waterpump, flywheel, etc)
But the best thing to do is ask your prospective Dyno shop.
I heard that if you go to a west coast Dyno shop they will provide you with everything you need to run the motor and throw in an extra hundred horsepower for free.....
Tee, like they said each shop might be a litle different. When I've had my motors done, I took the motor with flywheel and starter, seawater pump, distributor, and a jug of av-gas. I didn't need my MSD box, altenator or exhaust.
