Blaster cylinders don't have an exhaust bridge. Theres just one big hole for the exhaust gases to go out of.
Yup, no bridge. All (factory ported) Blasters have a single, undivided exhaust port. Like everyone's saying, disregard that part of the instructions. Be sure to check your carburetor jetting before firing up your newly-rebuilt engine. There's a reason those original rings blew.
Don't forget to do a leak-down on her aswell, I didn't have a leak-down tester and thought...screw it. Now I have a bad set of rings and a motor that has to come apart again!
