To Dyno or to not Dyno...

Is it really worth putting an old car with relatively little horsepower onto a dyno?

I have a 71 Baja that is in the process of Blue Slip (NSW) and once registered it was suggested by a fellow dubber here to have it dyno'd. When I stopped to think about his suggestion, really what is the benefit. The exhaust is made, the carb is tuned there are no computers to tweak O2 sensors etc. What else can he/she change by putting it onto a dyno?

Mabey I'm missing something.

Thank in advance for your experience.

Don't bother....save your money for other goodies for the car.

Wait for a Dyno Day and try to be in Sydney

For the $30 odd it does tell you where you sit.

I wouldnt spend a couple hundred on it though

Good advice - Dyno Days would be interesting to go and watch I reckon.
