Does anyone in CO or Wy have a spare junk housing?

Currently im going to school up here at wyotech and im in my chassis fab Hi PO engines class. i have nothing to do for my project so i am wondering if anyone has a spare junk unusable housing i would be able to have. I am going to try and do a large bridgeport. i have access to a mill, lathe, welder, porting tools, pretty much anything i need. so if someone has a junk housing that would be great thanks!!

the intermediate housing is the one between the 2 rotor housings correct? i thought a bridge port was done solely on the rotor housing intake port? and i thought that the ports on the center housing were onlt for the 6-port non turbo motors? im new to rotaries so you might need to elaborate a little. i have the book titled " HOW TO MODIFY YOUR RX7'' and it covers all port jobs and such but i dont have it handy at the moment. i am just looking for a free housing so i can practice some porting and milling techniques.

No, A bridge is an intake port. The only porting you'll be doing with a rotor housing is exhaust porting or a peripheral port.
