Default Engine Dyno in Minnesota?

Anyone know of an engine dyno in Minnesota? I'd like to break my engine in, and run it up on the dyno before it goes into the car if possible. Plus I'd like to get some actual engine dyno numbers, rather than chassis dyno and accounting for drivetrain losses.

What would prices be like?

Try this site on for size. They have a worldwide locator for Dyno-Jet dynos. http://www.dynojet.com/ldynocntr.shtml
Expect to pay 75.00 to 100.00 per hour.

It is a $500.00 dollar bill here.Includes max jetting and usually 3 pulls.

The $500 Dollars bills I have seen are pretty "thick" for what you get in return :D

Carbed street motor that is.Competition motor is a different story

Hey, Keith....does Minnehaha Falls still exist? When I was a kid my Grandma lived on Riverview Road (parallelling the Mississippi) about a mile or so from the Falls & we used to ride our bikes or walk thru the woods to the park from her house. Those were the good OLD days ....

R & R Performance in Blain (just north of Minneapolis). They did my block machining work and had a beautiful dino room.

It's still there:)
It's actually nicer now, they've redone it quite nicely..
( not the falls but the par around it )
