or is the 2.4 EFI Front Velosity Stack fuel injection 1986 merc is the first year of the Bridgeport......?

I believe the updrafts were all oval port motors.

Not sure when the first one arrived, but I have a 2.4 Bridge that is around 1979

My Bridgeport originally had the updraft. A bud looked up the numbers for me and we deduced it was built in late '81 or early '82. $.02 REW
