Bridgeport RX8
#402
UPDATE:
Motor should be shipping in pieces in the next week or so. As soon as my cad guy is done mapping out the motor, we'll put it together, break it in, tune, and dyno.
I hopefully will have a dyno map before the Deals Gap trip. I'll keep everyone posted.

Any now I've made myself a sad panda going through old vids of my Vette

Block was delivered today.
I'm getting base power dyno pulls this Wednesday.
Engine will be put together after Deals Gap, and we'll run stock computer pulls with the bridge port after it's broken in.
Lastly, I'll get an access port, tune it, and run one last set of pulls.
That should give a good indication of what this amount of porting does for the engine.
So results are coming soon for those that are waiting.

What kind of work was done to the exhaust ports? Excessive work on the intake without at least taking the exhaust into consideration is like having a large mouth and a tight anus, lot's of pain in exhausting what you eat
Given the location of the water jackets around the exhaust ports i'd say that any kind of excessive intake porting may be rendered useless but i guess that we'll see how it goes!
I'm also curious to see how the power curve changes and where the engine is finally choked.
Lot's of interesting thing to read in your future dyno plots!
