my 500e on the dyno

Will you get the car on the dyno with the new 6.0L engine?

My heart says yes and my mind say no, after last time I have seen a car gone total loss on a dyno.

If this engine blows it will cost me a lot more then when the 5.0 would fail because of the parts. A set of gasgets etc are far more expensive then the stock one's
 
What car did you see turn into a total loss on the dyno? How did that happen?

A nissan skyline 400+ BHP, it was a mess I heart
The piston rings in a cylinder are broken and therefore a broken bolt in the connecting rod and crankshaft all the misery that comes along

Grt
 
The Skyline engine would have probably failed anyway, on the street... I doubt the dyno caused the failure. Definitely a bummer though!
