It's like a Thumpr cam... all of the sound and drivability issues but none of the power.

 

Seems like a little bit more work on the ports would yield a much better result.

I have just downloaded Autodesk Simulation CFD, so when i learn how to use it i might try to get a flow simulation betwean a real bp and this drilled/swiss cheese version.

 

Did I point out that the only difference (drivability, economy, powerband) between a small bridge and a large one is the amount of power you make?

I did?

I'll make the point again. There is no point to making a "small" bridge. Once you open up past the cornerseal, you will have all of the same drivability/tuning sensitivity problems no matter if it is a 1/4" hole or a full height water seal eating eyebrow. The only difference is that the bigger port will actually be worth the hassle. I've tried all sorts of combinations and I've "settled" on eyebrows as big as possible without hitting water jacket on the secondary side. Only because I run 2 piece apex seals and I don't want to relieve the rotor housing where the short piece is.

I predict no more power than an equivalent street port, probably less.

 

yeah you already did peejay, how about you wait till my build is finished and then after my dyno results, and if i don't make over 200whp, than i'll gladly accept that it those port don't work, but for now all i hear is bashing,

i've also saved my Lightened Rotors for a different build, i'm using my S5 NA rotors for this engine

 

So do it then! I had my first half bridge engine ported and back in the car in less than two days. Do it to it!

BTW - I'm not close to 200whp unless you configure the dyno to inflation mode.

 

i'm waiting for parts to come in aka my rebuilt parts, i only work on the car on weekends, i live in the city and my car is in the club garage about 30miles away from me

 

Im keen as hell to see this thing smash the dyno! Start pulling sick days and get this thing going!

 

Update with some Pics, busy life barely have time to post

 

Back in the day people called that a "Domino" Bridge Port. It will work great. It has some nice angle to it. Good Luck with the build.

 

Could you go into more detail with the intake setup? looks like a standard LIM with a ??? UIM? Looks very interesting.

 

Appears to be the RB upper intake manifold for a side draft weber, with a spacer plate to change the total runner length.

 

the manifold setup is a S5 Lower with some minor porting, and a Rb upper modifed for fuel injection and made a weber to Mustang Cobra throttle body, i will post up pics tonight of more updates and first start up

 

Looking forward to the results! Hope it really works out well, also like the intake setup! Good luck either way!

 

SO! How'd it go?!

 

I was wondering this myself?

I see TWO Supras! What's up with those?

Also, could we get a close up on that center console, looks like you have a pretty interesting custom setup there.

 

restless are the natives getting ....

 

Got it up and Running about 2 Weeks ago,
here are some Details of my setup
s5 NA Domino bridge port , S5 NA lower manifold with minor porting i did
Racing beat upper manifold modded with Fuel injected bungs and bracket for fuel rail and also ported
Custom made my own adapter/spacer to fit a Mustang Cobra dual 54mm Throttle body
S5 Motor , Goopy 2mm 2 piece Seals , all new seals and Bearings 8Lb flywheel, RB Eshaft Pulley, custom gauges made by speed hut
Microtech Lt10 with X4 box with 4 fc trailing coils, Headers are RB and exhaust is a Vibrant Single but i plan to change that with a better exhaust awr as soon as i get it
i still have some other stuff to install like my wideband, fuel cell, and cage strut bar, a fan shroud i'm currently making but for, and clean up wiring , Here are some pics

 

 

i'm still breaking in the motor so i only went half throttle on every drive, after i break in the motor i will be getting a tune, not sure how long that'll be exactly with my busy schedule

 

a little Smooth 10K rpm Rev

 

I must ask where your cluster is from ... Sexy

 

its made by Speedhut gauges with custom Specs

 

looking forward to seeing some dyno results!

 

Give us an update!
