Well it it helps I have a blueprint 350 that I’ve been running In my 86 k10 for nearly 4-5 years now. Runs great and pulls hard. I have had zero issues with it. Used it as a daily for awhile and drive regularly. I’ve pulled trailers and boats with it great. We are also running a blueprint 400 in our 78 camaro and it’s a monster. It’s been going for like 3 years now with zero issues and that sob gets ABUSED!
You can make a 383 out of a 327. You shoudn't take a proven and dynoed cam out of a brand new crate engine and replace it with your own "great" cam. The first 3 minutes of this video hurt my brain while he was trying to take that shipping label off the crate with a crowbar.
Come on people! Blueprint is is a name that isn't used properly, its to build an engine for the car it's going in! Type of transmission/ rear end gear/ what hp /torque/ fuel delivery/ street or strip???? You have to custom build it for the customers needs!
You can buy where ever you want. We our a distributor for Blueprint. Of course we'll advertise. The more we sell, the better price we get. It's a free enterprise
I got 5000 miles on a blueprint 350 ready to run motor. No major issues with it. Makes good power.
That 383 Stroker looks very nice. I am looking to put something like that in my 1989 Chevy Caprice. Thank you for the information.
I have that same engine in my 55, runs great and pulls hard...only problems are leaking intake, valve covers.
My neighbor just installed a 456HP Blue Print 383 roller into his ‘76 4 speed Corvette. That thing is Fast.
Yes, we actually have a 77 Corvette coming up with the same engine with a 4spd. Thanks for watching!
@@jimbadalian9132 You won’t be disappointed.
@@jimbadalian9132I’ll be staying tuned for this. I have a 77 Corvette L82 that I’m considering a BP 383 for…
Love to go all out and get the biggest small block and run it.❤❤
I've got the same engine in my 63 impala. Runs great and sounds bad to the bone. Make sure you have a fuel pressure regulator 👍
Wow ! I remember those days !
Nice looking motor. I would love to hear her running.
Will definitely will not disappoint you. However, we are planning a nice smokey burnout! Thanks for watching. We got you!
You can make a large journal 327 into a 383. Same bore as a 350.

You can but it's only a 2bolt main.

@@dpierson489 true. With machine costs nowadays if I wanted to make any decent power I would go straight to a dart block.
I seen a 383 stroker on jeggs for $5600 with 420hp and 465tq for my 1980 Malibu 😏
Did you get it?
Can it also be fuel efficient ?
Thinking about getting for my monte carlo ss ... Ls swap prices are ridiculous 🙄 im going 383 drop in ...🔥
I agree, efi is on the rise and with a healthy price tag I might add. Thx for your response!

Can either of these also be fuel efficient?
@@xmo552 I mean you can make nearly any engine “efficient” if you throw a small carburetor on it
@@yamahaguy1732
I think overdrive and rear gear could help more than a smaller carb.
This helped with my decision to pull the trigger on one.
It's a great choice! Thanks for watching!
Sea sick from the camera work
Looks good. What size headers and exhaust would you recommend for this engine?
Doug's headers
I have one fully dressed dyno at 467
Good content 📌
Thank you knidly!
Have same engine going in my.66 c10.
I'm looking at the same setup for my 79k10. What headers are you running?

Is there a video of it in truck and running? I want to hear that baby cam….
Not there yet. Still waiting on the funds to move forward. Thx for asking!

What's the max hp on it?

Paul, We need more details/specs regarding engine preference. Thanks for watching!
Look at website where engine from
ok, thx for watching!
Why order from you? Just get it from Blueprint or Speedway.

Swapping out 350 w 383 Blueprint….
😂 this guy is a joke trust me!! Been there before! Got receipts and pictures!
Are you speaking of the shop in the video? Just asking because I didn't see any response to the comment
Plus the engines from Blue Print come with a 2.5 year 50k warranty, not one year like he says. Doesn't make sense to me.
What’s the point of wearing glasses if you aren’t even going to look through them?
lmbo :)
Budlite NO!!!
Lol Thanks for watching! Jim
Leatherman tool ...
