supercharged bridgeport
Here's a preview of my new engine project. The engine pics are not of the final assembly, so you'll see they haven't been thoroughly cleaned yet. Going though break-in now, more updates to follow. http://media.putfile.com/bridgeported-supercharged-13b

Looking good. The idle sounds pretty smooth for being bridge ported.

Also do you know the weight on the Supercharger and intake?

shiny that's pretty sweet, and after hearing your idle, i'm thinking that the PO didn't lie to me...

good job. can't wait to see a vid of you with the motor broken in, ripping down a street.

Man, it almost doesn't sound like a bridgeport! Very, very sweet. I too am looking forward to seeing it in action.

Did the locked dizzy mod, works great. I would like a 12at dizzy to mod in the future though. Just gotta dial in the holley carb. May take some videos with it this weekend with the edelbrock on it though, that carb is dialed in sooooooooooooooo perfect, just not big enough to get all the topend potential out of the engine.
