Computer Dyno Simulation and Engine Building Software is used to test engine combinations before purchasing parts. This can save hundreds, possibly thousands of dollars by reducing the possibility of purchasing the wrong or inferior components.

Typical inputs are engine bore, stroke, rod length, cylinder heads, intake, carburetor, camshaft and rocker arm information. After the inputs are complete, the software calculates the horsepower and torque the engine would produce at various rpm levels. If desired, different components can be selected and their relative engine outputs compared to determine which components work best together to obtain the desired results.

Below are typical screenshots of the engine input and dyno simulation screens
