LAS VEGAS, NV. – BluePrint Engines gave us a good look at their new Short Block Plus crate engine—a GM 383-cubic-inch-displacement short block stroker—at the 2015 SEMA show.

Three versions of this BluePrint engine are available:

One with a cast crank and hypereutectic pistons.

Another with a forged crank and hypereutectic pistons.

And a fully forged version with a forged crank and pistons.

These BluePrint crate engines were tested with machined Trick Flow cylinder heads, and made as much as 460 horsepower.
