my bridgeport ran fine with stock timing. there's another problem somewhere. are you sure the pulley is on right?
i would seafoam or spray a ton of carb cleaner into it for starters. that type of starting issue sounds like a corner seal issue. but if it's 60psi tops on all faces then it's gotta come apart.

Well that seafoam works so good I didnt even have to open the can! lol Before I even put it in the engine I tried starting it up and she fired all on her own for the first time. Its still hard starting but it seems to be getting better.
So i just tried seafoaming afterwards to see if it would help any...... i put about 1/4 cup in each rotor and turned it over manually a few times and let her sit overnight like that. It seems to be helping also. Is there a more efficient way of using it or is this the best/easiest way?
And the engines only got about 1000-1500 miles on it from what I'm told. I would believe it too cause the inside of the chambers look nice clean and chatter free and the enitre engine is so clean and brand new looking.
Once you get this thing running and warmed up it pulls HARD and sounds amazing and doesn't miss a beat....... its just getting it started.
