    Need a radiator, water pump and figure out how to make it all work. There are guys that run them on carts and stuff like that with cooling systems, it can be done.

    Is there a reason why you would want a closed system? Most all engine dynos and run stands use a “loss system”. Build your stand....give it a base plate with a simple valve that your garden hose hooks to, and go to town.
