Jumped in feet first and ordered today. Shout out to Johnny at BP, gave me a 5% military discount off the engine.

Excellent customer service and I'm waiting now expected shipping in 10-12 weeks. Should be fun!

You will be very happy with it. I've seen quite a few of their motors in person at car shows here in Las Vegas. They make a great product.

Congratulations! You won't be disappointed. Here's what my BPE 347 did on the dyno before it was shipped to me. Look how flat the torque curve is across the RPM band!

Great choice! Just started my BPE same setup for the first time last week https://youtu.be/o-2541BKBCg. Best of all, the plug and play is simply amazing. It has had to be the easiest engine install I have ever done.

Ditto! Great choice. My BP 347 dyno’d at 439hp and the flat torque that Dave pointed out is why I went with the 347. I wanted the torque EARLY not up above 3k.
You’re gonna love it.

Ordered mine from Johnny at BPE as well. My Dyno looks like Papa's. The 347 is a torque monster. It came in the allotted time frame and was crated great!

That is so exciting! I too went with the BluePrint 347 and Johnny helped me order it. Johnny was great and answered my thousands of questions. My engine arrived yesterday and it looks amazing!

My torque curve looks like Papa's as well. My dyno had a max HP of 420 and torque of 435 ft lbs.

Now I just need a car to put it in. My kit completion date was today and Stewart is scheduled to pick up in less than a week!

What ratios did you chose in the TKX and diff?

1ST: 2.87 / 2ND: 1.89/ 3RD: 1.28 / 4TH: 1.00 / 5TH: 0.81 / REV: 2.56

No diff selected yet.

FYI, for all of those who are on the fence, Johnny said they are about to have price increases so it may be good to jump now.

FYI, 10-12 weeks from order to delivery was advised.
