looks like you called it right as a mod vp, ive heard that the mod vps run real close with the bridgeports on light hulls. id have to guess the bridgeport would be faster because its what mercury upgraded to from the oval ports. any chance youve got the right head for my bridgeport? :)

How much would you be wanting for the head off the oval port? Trying to get the parts together to get it ready for the build this winter

I take it your running 91 octane mistah max? Im looking to keep it on 87 octane if possible to keep my running costs down. But from a thread I found on scream and fly, a one gallon gas tank is gone in 3 minutes at idle lol :lol:

the oval port head has 120 120 120 on them so i assume they will make around 120 psi :lol: ,,
