Yep, that was how i was going to do it.
We'll just run it from 500 RPM to 11,000 RPM, and we'll measure its extension as a function of RPM. I know RPM from the timing pulses for each motor and each pulley combination. I'll just spin the governor at a fixed speed, and measure its extension. We can draw the curve, and then develop the model for opening. I have the stock ignition curve (to 4000 RPM...i can't run the stock ignition backwards), so we can see if the break in the advance curve jibes with the break in the PV governor.
The breaks SHOULD be close. You don't want to run too much advance with too much compression as that's a recipe for pre-detonation.
