half bridge 6-port????? (searched)
so iv been searching for a week or so, i have a 87 n/a i want to half bridge port this engine and run a microtech e.c.u. i want to keep the actuators to run on street ports on low RPM's and the bridge on high RPM's has anyone done this and worked well???
i used to run a 74' 13B half bridge the car ran 11.72 with 5.10 final gear and 26"x8.5" slicks messed up the engine b/c of the oil return line taking a dump on me , so now i have to make ends meet with what i have (a full machine shop at my disposal and a a microtech lt-8s e.c.u.)![Smilie](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I think 265 is pushing it with a half bridge. It might be possible with a custom intake, though. The only thing to do is build it and find out.
Edit: I'm not sure if keeping the aux sleeves is the best idea. I think they might limit the flow of the bridged ports, but I'm not sure. Better leave that to the experts.

If you are talking about just bridging the aux ports, don't do it. You miss out on a lot of bridgeport timing and thus flow.
If you are going to bridge, either do a half bridge (secondaries and aux only) or a full bridge (all ports). You're going to get the overlap regardless so you might as well go all the way...
I recall someone trying to run a aux bridge with actuators in place. I also recall them saying that it ran like absolute crap....
