New ADL Control Installation on one Stuska® 800 Dyno at Ernie Elliott's Concord, NC engine shop. One day temporary setup using wire and cable ties to locate tank, lines, power module, and Control Panel. Next to do is a Perminent installation. This engine just completed a Nextel Cup race and is 'broke-in'. PIC at the back

Six Pulls to 'simulate' 3 laps arround a short track to combine into accurate average performance curves. Emergency Stop at 9700 RPM when done for a clean cut and plug check. The ADL is set for a 9700 RPM Rev Limit. See Hi-Res 11 Meg

Using the Break-In Mode to cycle the engine from 6500 to 9000 RPM (for Cam and valve train) followed by a 'demo' Emergency Stop. See Hi-Res 4 Meg

The last 3 of the 6 'simulation' Pulls are Combined and curves compared with a no-change 'simulation' 30 minutes latter. The average Power is the same. Observe the very subtle details in the curves caused by the complex crossover exhaust system. The DEPAC System does Not Filter data and does Not Smooth curves so results are True and Honest. DEPAC is only for those few who know the difference.

Smooth, Natural Sweep from 5000 to nearly 9000 RPM at 330 RPM/Sec. Illustrates DEPAC recommended test procedure using our new Load System. Pickup the throttle twice to full load at the sweep start point to Put heat into the motor AND to check to see if engine is running OK. Third pickup then starts the actual test sweep, by holding down the Test Button.
