408 Stroker Short Block Details: Blueprint Engines

  1. Well, nothing like having a couple weeks holiday time off and its time to retreat to the shop to tear into things a little. Got some of this nice NiCop (copper/nickle) 3/8" fuel line and an nos Fram canister filter, gonna hook that up, finish up the 489 case 4.10 w/Powr Lok, start getting things ready for the coming year, drag this thing back to the 1/8 mile in March, 1/4 mile for sure in early April, goal is cracking into the 11's. I'm thinking of yanking the EQ heads off maybe during hot summer months and either doing some extensive porting, and slap them back on or, hmmm, definately fighting off the "I want MORE" thoughts, don't think I'll be able to for long! LOL! Regarding the Blueprint short block, after about a year of driving and dragging, there been no issues to date and including almost 2 months sitting up on jack stands, no rear main seal leaks, or from anywhere else for that matter, nice! :thumbsup:
