Usually when you run on a dyno its only in one gear, usually 2nd or 3rd (most likely 3rd) and you run from a certain rpm (maybe 3K) to your redline rpm (5500-6200, depending on vehicle an vavletrain) I would say run in 3rd (no overdrive)

I would run 3rd gear because its a 1:1 gear ratio, meaning less hp loss to the wheels, and also lock the TC so you can get a 1:1 ratio between the flexplate and the input shaft. If you dont lock the TC, the numbers will be pretty strange. Ive seen 600hp, 10 second cars make 340 at the wheels with unlocked, high stall TC's.
