Dyno Procedures?

Is your dyno going to let you run your car? Most don't, but the one I went to let me. If you have a switch to lock your TCC try a run with it and without it. I didn't have one when I went and I forgot to do the paper clip trick, but I hear it makes a big difference.
Anyway, it's hard to keep your transmission from automatically downshifting, but I brought it up to about 45mph in 2nd, shifted to 3rd and rolled into the throttle. Don't jab it. If it downshifts just stay into it..... Also, you won't use Overdrive and whatever you do don't stick it back in park while it's on the dyno!
I was there when an F-Body owner did that. If you have any questions when you are there ask! I found the dyno was a lot easier for my car than the road. I was able to run more boost and less fuel than normal.
