Price of Bridge Porting
I have a 1989 GTU...I have got one quote and have found another shop to get a quote from
The first quote was from a shop In GA and it was 5000(5k) for a bridge port...
does anyone know the average price for a good bridge port?? any good shops in the SC, NC, GA area???

I would charge...
$2,000 for engine rebuild - the engine has to come apart so you might as well rebuild it
$600 for the bridge port porting itself
$500 for removal
$500 for reinstallation
That's $3,600 right there.  The $5,000 does sound kinda high, unless...
Add $1,000 for adding strengthen stat gear and all new bearings with upgrade oil pressure regulator.  This will allow the engine to spin past 9,000RPM...then we start getting close to the $5,000 mark.
If you add in proper engine break-in, then that just about covers the $5,000 quote.
