Contact Carlo at CC Racing he has several (3) Dyno's he uses all the time. You should also be asking this on Jim's where the Gasers hang out.

Some of us still like the smell of NITRO in the morning and hang out here too . . .

Mike Bontoft and I have built a gas engine inertial dyno. First, plan to spend over $2000 for machining, hardware, and software. We have the advantage of two fairly well equipped machine shops, so Mike did the machining. We used Performance Trends software and it has a section that you can use for inertial wheel design. It will predict that the wheel diameter that you want to use (5 to 51/4 inch) is over stressed. We used heat treated 4140 steel, and the stresses from a simple calculation are very close to the yield point. Be very careful.

Look at the beautiful brake dyno Jim Allen built. There are pictures in his album. I have pictures of our dyno as well. One is attached.
