Yes about 3.5hr drive. Be much worth it if I could pin down what is going on. Im not looking to use this to get max hp readings. Already have those. Just need it as a tool to load the engines to compare readings/voltage drops/fuel psi drops ect. Hopefully they keep it at their morris location. Their location up past Chicago is about 5hr drive. Thanks

Buck, nothing has made since with this issue. It's very frustrating to say the least. Fuel is definitely another item on the radar. Just odd it's the exact same rpm drop. If it was short on fuel by a certain rpm before you'd think I'd be even worse now, and both engines on that side should have leaned out to death by now! Hell, I went from 88 jets on old engines to 99's in the new to get me 12.5:1 on the dyno. So I'm needing a ton more fuel now comparatively. But still exact same rpm difference. 300 down at 3000 and 500 down at 6000. Definitely something going down just not easy to catch it

Post # 8 and 10 in the video.
You are looking for an prop dyno the 2 main player were International and when Land & Sea were making them many years ago. Land & Sea makes them still but they are more current and expensive. Like 10 k for brand new currently.
I use to have an international but sold it a couple years ago
You might be able to call around the boat dealers close by and see if you could rent time on theirs.

That's something I'm worried about with prop shaft dyno. The water. I have thru hull pickups and just at 1800-2000rpm I can pull a strong garden hose half shut. The headers get hot when on the hose with no load. With a load would be horrible and I have stelling dry's. If one of them go Im up ****s creek
