How much power do you want to make, and now much money do you have to spend?

If I were you I would get in touch with Mike B he lives there in Denver and I think his black FD is a half bridge and his is street legal. He put's down like 520+ to the ground. If you need his contact info PM me. There are a couple of other people in Denver that I can recommend you talk to also.

I'm personally against the BP for one simple thing......Gas is over $3.20 a gallon.

On a track car, go even more extreme. Peripheral port it!

Almost all of CO does have emissions, especially Denver. There a few counties in CO that don't.

My website clearly says that if you email me, it's a 6 month wait. I get a lot of email.

For just mid 12s, GT30R kit from Speed Machine. Good for 300-340 to the wheels. You don't need a bridgeport.

Put it this way, my street ported series 5 naturally aspirated motor got 15 miles per gallon ON THE FREEWAY! 7-9mpg city driving... A bridge port is only going to be worse. I'd go with a street port.

I know it's different but I Street ported a 13b-REW at 12 psi he put down 350 WHP on the dyno (Apex I Power FC managed). He ran a 13.1 at 120 miles per hour. The suspension set up is for autocrossing obviously he has major traction issues with a trap speed at 120. What do you mean the motor wouldn't last a month?

That would be a wise choice. Why do you think they call it a "Street" port?

My bridgeport got 19mpg on the highway. You're setup has some issues.

EDIT: FWIW, a 1998 Dodge Viper GTS has an EPA city mileage of 9.5mpg. Again - something's wrong with your setup....
