templates are good for the oriface shape, but i think most guys will agree that some very important work is done where you CAN'T see.
Thats what the video would be for

BDC will soon be doing a half-bridge on my housings. After meeting and talking with him quite extensively and seeing some of his work, he has my confidence.

yeah, hey dave, if you remember my first attempt that i posted on teamfc, it was pretty nasty. Its not as easy as it would seem to get into the tight spaces of the runners and deep into the opening side of the port. But a template is a good place to start.

haha, yup it was the 1/3. although this was my first attempt and it came out pretty nasty, good thing that housing was toast anyway. But its a cool pic becuase the housing is so mirror-finish that you can see a pretty sweet 300z in the reflection. anyway, i hope to find a new housing soon and make it look more like yours.haha

Since we're all showen each other our ports, i thought id show mine.

sorry about the quality of photos, i didnt have a digital camera at the time.

The small bridge was used as n/a with weber, This was my first engine i ever built and my first attempt at porting.

The pictures with the large bridgeport were intended to be used with turbo, I never got to see how this port went as the motor was stolen nearing the end off the project, A real **** off as i spent approx 30hr+ porting it.

Because of a cracked rear plate Im currently rebuiding my fc engine, I will be using a medium sized bridge with this set up. Just not looking forward to porting it.
