There’s no longer anyone in the Ottawa area with a dyno (engine only) that I’m aware of. Went to a place last year only to find the doors closed, and yet as of today, their website is still up. I did contact Nick’s Garage in Montreal last year via email, but never heard back. I’ll call them this time.
When I started this project, I contacted the provincial authority and communicated with one of their engineers. They have a handbook on “home built” vehicles, but the requirements would mean essentially no “hot rod”. No exposed exhaust, windshield required, heater required, etc. So, the plan was to race it at TROG etc, but I should have read the rules first. This thing doesn’t qualify for TROG because of the T5, modern rad/fan. I’ll figure something out. ��
