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
