If your engine was bridgeported, the seller would have made a special point of mentioning it, repeatedly.
Bridgeports are rarely found with a stock carb. It won't flow enough air to feed the beast.......

Trust me, you would know if you had a bridgeport.
It would sound something like this:

yeah i just figured it all out.. Someone had told me it was some factory option?! and i had a hard time believing that. So i figured id ask.. But thanks though. My plan with this car is to build up a turbo 12A blowthrough.. Ive done many V8 engines, but this is my first time tearing into a rotary. Gonna be pretty interesting. If anyone has any tips id really like to know about any.

Hello, I have a stock 84 rx7gsl 12a. it needs a little more power. It has no cat, turbo muffler and a nikki carb. I took the spring out of the vaccuum secondary diaphram and didn't see much difference ( I wonder if the secondaries are even opening). Power seems to top out at 6800 rpm. My main question, is it possible to do a street port without removing or rebuilding the engine. Also, since the cat is gone, and exhaust flows well, would a header make a measurable difference. Carb works well, but can't find the idle screw. Choke works but fast dile doesn't. Thanks for any advice.
Funny thing was not one person slammed me or told me to search, I got constuctive replies (2003)
