Abstract: An apparatus for delivering an engine to a dynamometer is provided with an exhaust system, coolant system, electrical system, and an engine mounting system. The systems decrease the time required to dress an engine while increasing test reliability and the number of engines that can be tested in an engine test room.

Abstract: A user friendly engine delivery system is provided which employs a wheeled engine pallet assembly for transferring a dressed engine to a dynamometer room where the engine will be subsequently tested. A set of guide rails work in conjunction with a self-centering pallet locating system in order to strategically locate the engine pallet relative to the centerline of the dynamometer. Once the engine pallet is properly aligned, a clamping system is used to secure the engine pallet assembly to the bed plate of the dynamometer. A flexible fluid manifold is attached to the pallet assembly and allows a test engineer to uniquely design a fluid manifold to have the proper fluid fittings that are needed for a particular test application. The engine delivery system is versatile in that it can accommodate both front and rear wheel drive engines and further offers the flexibility of dual side entry ways.
