Good job.:thumbsup: Curious what you were using for a load bank.
We just repacked both of our 12-645 EMD's (1.3 Mw ea.) and ran them in just like that.

I have a 300kw resistive load bank that I cool with a 4' box fan. It was permanently installed on a generator to artificially load it. It works good for testing...

This is what we used. 4 Mw resistive carbon pile. Very loud fans. :mad:
