Good Lord, Bruce.. 60mb mpg???? I'm downloading it now. I hope it's cool.
I'm still not sold on big, huge bridgeports. I think what you've got now works pretty well, but if you want to try a larger spec, let me know.

Took some better videos today. Give them a look, guys. Should be much brighter and easier to see.

How much would it cost to put together a complete motor like yours? The sound is amazing, throttle response looks sick, and you seem to have a great reputation on here. I'm looking for the motor itself, normally I guess you'd call it the shortblock?

Why do you keep dodging the how much hp question and just answer the ones that suit you? If you haven't had it on a dyno just say I haven't had it on a dyno.
I am just curious as I have a full bridge turbo set up and wonder why you didn't go that way.

Just a question for thought: How does a half-bridge compare to a semi pp in terms of power, reliability, powerband, and streetability? I am considering doing one of them when I rebuild my motor, but not sure which one yet.
Thanks,
Aaron

half bridge idle
I recently rebuild my fd engine with new apex seals and new spring and a half bridge....the car was very hard to start and when it does start it idles at 3000+ rpm....if u drop the idle it will die and would be very hard to start back...i am running a pfc ecu...I drove it a few times like this but if I put some more miles on the engine would the idle level off with out cutting off? is this situation normal?
