Engine Run Stand Needed

**enio45** · #1 01-22-2026, 03:02 PM

My buddy Sam Grif and I have built a BB 427 GM engine and have a need to run the motor again after several dyno runs. Now that it is in our possession we want to run it on an engine stand to test/dial in a few things

Would like to find one we can use - happy to compensate the owner for the use.

Anything available - in or around the OHIO area - sam is in Dayton Ohio.

Please reach out to me or Sam Grif (mockingbird - sams ID here on SYC)

Thanks in advance for any help or direction.

I'm in the Dayton area and I looked for a few months. Couldn't find one that wasn't for sale. Ended up running my engine in on a dyno to break it in.

A quick update - a member here close to Dayton Ohio has graciously offered his run stand for our needs.

We have yet to pick it up, but will send pics of the motor on the stand when we get it mounted etc.

Thank you again SYC Members for the help - such a great group of members!
