We are always looking for new and innovative ways to help customers, and the "one stop" shopping method has proven to be super popular. Unlike some other companies claiming to do the same, we ship these AS PICTURED. Meaning engine, front accessory drive, and trans/converter 100% assembled as pictured!
I posted these and immediately sold a half dozen.

I realize this isn't the cheapest thing out there, but the value really is there if you are in the market for a new drivetrain. Not to mention the labor saved, and hours hunting little pieces parts. Our 727/converter package is a killer deal. So paired with a 408, its a winner.

Chrysler Compatible Engine / Transmission Combos

We have several front drive options also. With and without A/c , PS if desired. Or serp, v belt, etc.

I can do these with the iron headed engine too...but the roller cam version is such a beast...hard to ignore it
 
OK so I give up, why do black pulleys cost $100 more than polished ones?

Because they go through the same polishing process to get them smooth, and THEN they are coated. Extra step.

I do have a few other versions that can take some cost out. Say for someone that only wants an alt, or alt and PS.
 
what do you use for a kickdown linkage on this set up?

Would you all ever offer these 408s with Trick Flow heads instead of Edelbrock?

I looked into it, and the cost increase to eek another 20 HP out of the standard configuration didn't make sense at the horsepower per dollar level. I called TFS a few times to see if they wanted to work with us, and never got a call back. So with that $$$ rocker setup, and paying Almost retail, I don't think many would spring for it.
 
Patiently waiting on slant six powertrains. lol

I recommend the Lokar cables. They usually save the aggravation of modifying and fighting stock linkage setups.

I agree. There EZ to set up and work excellent. All of my rides (except my E-body Cuda) came as a 2bbl. from the factory.

The rockers are a bit pricey....
Your short block would be the easiest way to get there. Then the purchaser can add your or there own cam to suite.

I agree. if you were building ONE engine...then yes. the TFS are a no brainer. But at what i'm just guessing is a $1500-$2000 increase over the edelbrocks with the rockers. just doesn't make sense for mass production.
 
Just an FYI, I sold yet another one of these the other day, and put it together with a Non A/C serpentine system. aluminum headed Engine/trans/front drive was $11,696. So thats quite a bit cheaper than the full billet serp setup with A/C for anyone interested. will get pics of it and get it on the site eventually.
 
Hey Johnny Mac changing the subject a bit but I'm proud to have a BluePrint engine but I have nothing in my garage or car to show it as you can see I have all my other decals on what I have in my car but the heart is missing and would be nice to show it off as well as a nice decal on my console. Tell the boss he needs to make some nice decals up so that I can show it off to others.

I haven't messed with it a bunch over winter. The Engine is sitting at my house. its assembled in longblock status. I was literally out of room to work, but I just put up a pole building, so i can finally get back to it!

I didn't think you could buy a shortblock from Blueprint anymore?
