My first porting - street or bridge (12A)

I am going to be porting my 12A in the near future and I'm trying to decide between a street and a bridge. A bridgeport would be nice but I've never ported before and I dont want to screw up my engine. Do you think I could pull off a bridge or should I stick with a streetport to get a little experience first?

use the search function...it's on the top right corner. Use the word "porting". There is a lot of information to read...

Best advice I can give you is to take your time and buy any part that does not pass inspection on teardown. It's not uncommon to screw up your first attempt, so maybe even have extra plates to practice first.

Good luck.
