6 Port bridgeport Rx-2 test and tunning

This is my nephews Rx-2. engine is a series 4, 6 port bridgeport. I'm using a 650cfm holley carb. It also has a 1 stage of nitrous oxide. So far car is being tested with out the n20. A fairly new driver(rookie) but so far so good. Car runs 12.0 @105mph on its 4th run. season is over here in the northeast, but the car will be testing some more once the season starts. here are some pics of the last event we had. enjoy the pics. Pic of the 6 port bridgeport.

That looks like Louie's old car, it use to have a t2 motor in there before he sold it... You guys got a sweet deal on that roller, I was looking into it but funds was low at the time... do you have any pics of the rack & pinion conversion?

Yes Alex, I build the engine about 3 years ago, Atkins 2mm apex seals. The engine went from one project into another, until finally it landed on this nice Rx2. Engine has respectable horsepower for a 6port design..

no. the car has a better time in it. Car was running a Dial in bracket race. Rx2 was dialed in @12.00 and my nephew didn't want to run under the dial in(and loose). He lifted of the gas pedal and ran the 12.0@105mph.Once you lift close to the finish line, the MPH drops drastically.
