If you work with your local dealer on parts and maybe a bit of shop advice, they would be glad to dyno it for you. If not, then find a dealer and they should be glad to do it for a fee. A dyno isn't something that the average tractor guy would have. It takes a lot of money and bit of skill to run one oand get correct readings. I agree with the post below.

As for how much you'll get vs. what you have now? All depends on how wore what you have now is. A dyno would be a great way to check that out. I've always wondered myself how much power you pick up. I've never noticed a power increase on the ones my dad has done. Just less blowby and a little smooter run. Aaron
