Hey guys I wanted to get back on and give you an update, I did just add a video of the PSLS4242CTF running on the dyno to our YouTube page, here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wtOJmqXnLw

XLexusTech,
Currently we are only offering the 427ci LS3 and they all are going to be right at the 625HP range but we do have some LS options still in R&D that will be based off of the iron block. We know the GM muscle car pan is far from optimum, so we have engineered and designed a new pan from the ground up, it has improved baffling and improved flow to and from the filter. We're getting the foundry molds made and we should have our first castings in a couple months. I think you will like the new design!

Whose crank and rods do you use? I don't see a name listed in your specs.

I am leaning this way as well. Andrew looking for the dyno sheets on both the FI and Carb LS3 427's. On your web site they are the same hp but on the Jegs web site the FI is 585hp? Thanks Kevin

Default I just recived my Blue Print Engine

Today I received my LS engine from Blue Print. This thing is awesome, it came with all sensors, ECU, wiring harness, Header gaskets and a drive-by wire GM gas pedal. I'm really impressed with the dyno sheet. Also the engine on their website says it has 625 HP 565 ft/lbs. When I looked at the dyno sheet with my engine I have 632.2 HP and 601.6 ft/lbs, which is pretty cool to get an extra 7.2 HP and 33.9 ft/lbs. I also need to say that their customer service was excellent. One of the coils had a chip on it, which I'm guessing from shipping, so I called up Andrew Obermeier BluePrint Engines Product Specialist, who commented on this forum "if you need any help just ask". I called and left a message for him and in less than 15 minutes he called me back and gave me a claim # and said the part will ship out tomorrow. I'm really happy with the engine and all the extras and would recommend them to everyone looking to get a bad ass LS motor.

Really nice looking set-up. An LS427 is in my future so please keep adding to this thread after you get it in and running with your impressions. I'm impressed to hear how they handled your concerns because that is the type of company I want to do business with.

Looks like a nice choice. For the price per power, and weight, it'd be hard to beat.

I have heard over stroked LS3's were prone to heat problems. Is this Engine config a risky one?
