Default LS7 engine dyno

Does anyone have the video of GM developing I think it was the LS7 on a rotating & moving engine dyno? Thanks in advance

The engines were set up on movable carts that were moved into the dyno cells. They didn’t rotate but they moved (with air power)

No that is something different...The one I saw years ago was the LS7 I think on an engine dyno at factory where the engine was at full throttle I think and it was changing angles to almost straight up at about 75 degrees for a few seconds, then went left for 50/60 degrees and then right for same...It was amazing and I'm sure I saw it on the forum.

I guess they might have something like that. I never saw one like it.

The one I saw that you describe was the
