Dave. I'm telling you from experiance. If you go half bridge, you will have all the tuning and drivabilty problems of a full bridge with none of the power. Either go full, or don't waste your time. Just my advice.

This is a REW not a 12A or T2 engine There is plenty of power in stock form to handle either of those I am not looking for rediculous power up top, since I drive the car daily when it is up I want a car with some power that exists outside the nosebleed section of the RPM band. Just what I am going for. I'll still handle you with ease Sorry had to do it

Dave. It's not like that. If you would quit tooting your own horn for a minute, let me explain what a half bridge does. It causes a turbulance in the intake stroke that will totally screw up any possiblilty of driveability or low end responce. It doesn't matter if it's half bridge or full. You seem to think that going half on the end plates will only work on the high end. The air flow is through the entire rpm range. The fact that you have a "REW" is nothing but an intake. The intake and exhaust port timing is the same as any 4 port that has been built since the 70's. If you take your "bridge" eyebrow down as far as your primary port, you will have so much intake overlap you will loose more low end than you realize. I'm just trying to help you out, not start a debate. There is no debate. It's all about port timing. That's it.

Seems as someone is a bit touchy. I don't "toot" my own horn. That duty is left to someone else in the club that is the best at everything Have a nice day, and thanks for telling me what I already know. It just makes me feel better that I have been port timing engines since I was 14 Thanks again

Not being touchy, just trying to lay some facts your way. It's up to you whether you want to take to red pill, or the blue one. Then you can decide for yourself just how far the rabbit hole goes

Cant do it tomorrow, Might be picking up another S4 TII block.


Sam, the HBP would work on a later model engine. With the way the manifold is designed and the design of the runners themselves, the primary ports would be pushing a ton more air at lower RPM than the secondaries will be. The manifold has a ton of work in how the HBP runs.

Wet-sanding it tomorrow. Got Ant's approval on a job well done a few minutes ago. It came out waay better this time round due to my compressor taking a crap mid paint and losing pressure(CFM's)

I eat all the pills no matter the color. You really need to stop reading your kids books Plus LSD is way better than pills I think your ported engine needs a pull start again

WTF? Am I on everyones **** list these days. I try to give people advice that they will not listen too, then I'm the one to blame when they do it thier way and it doesn't work? I repeat. WTF. For someone wanting to shoot thier mouth off about someone elses work, you should be greatfull that Anthony has had so much patience with something that should have only taken a week to do.

No Sam, you're not Dave knows what he is doing.

Edit: May take a week to paint a car, but takes 30 seconds to check end-play

I agree i say we kill the thread and start over. This thread has gotten to be a he said she said **** fest, with a lot of useless **** in between. I think we should start a new thread and everyone start posting back like we have never meet and we can all have clean slates

haha! a week... toot,toot. You of all people should know what happens when you rush...everything fails real soon afterwards..I.E. all your engines.

If we are going to start a new thread I think a couple people should be invited not to join us. And if anyone "runs" their mouth it is not me, the entire group would agree that you are the one with diarhea of the mouth. And bad judgement all together. Noone else plays grab *** when at a meet Dumbass!!

Anytime you would like to do as good of a job smoothing metal and finishing it WHILE recovering from major back surgery that got botched feel free. And ask Ant how much he is paying for this? I know it is hard for you to accept that other people in the group are better mechanics than you are, it's OK, but try to avoid drowning in all that haterade mmmk!

BTW: Did you get your sweet ported engine for long runinng again yet? Sweet job pro-porter

Any time you would like to talk **** to my face come on over. Comparing E-Dicks with you is like having a battle of Witts,.... You are severely unarmed and it will be an unfair fight Come on over tough guy I'm up all night anyways and need something to do for a minute..

If you feel no one likes you maybe you should just leave and do some self reflecting on how awsome you are at everything. There is a common denominator in this thread of useless banter. Want to know who that is?..
