HI,

My van fits that category nicely.  I volunteered to be a control sample if
he could find a local (Raleigh) shop.  Any quick dyno would be good enough
for one stock run.  Unfortunately, the level of sophistication required for
Robert (wind effect, etc.) pushes the test 2 hours away to Charlotte and the
cost to $100, which is more time and money resources than I would take away
from my family.  However, I suppose I don't have to go to the same dyno as
him if they are all calibrated to National Standards properly.  Maybe there
is a local one that is good enough . . .
