BluePrint Engines 302ci Crate Engine: Chassis Dyno Runs in a Fox Body Mustang | Can it make 300rwhp?

[@Adrenacyde]

Looking forward to the bare block with main caps to become available. Here's hoping...

[@angelads4610]

I ordered the 347 I'm going to have around the same setup. I'll give an update on the horse power.

[@969Garage]

Please do

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

Not just the power increase but the way it holds the power up top and doesn't fall off a cliff is very impressive!! That is going to feel wicked fast especially in a Foxbody which is a very light car compared to what's out now..

[@Raisen476]

Yes, please do a ride and drive video. Nice little 302 package!

[@hyde302r6]

I wish they sold the short block

[@packhousetv]

Yeah, the heads kinda suck. Pun intended lol

[@joesanchez9512]

I’d buy a short block quick

[@jerrydninja]

I would love to get that short block.

[@nothanks81]

Lol just the block, rest is cookie cutter qaulity

[@jmc3676]

Yes indeed

[@95Sn95]

This seems like a killer engine for a lively daily driver. I'd love to have one. I will say one thing that's great about a stock HO with a free flowing exhaust is the low end TQ, those HOs are low end TQ monsters. Mine still has the 2.73 gears and it will just chug if I want it to. The other day I took off in 1st rolled off until I reached 25mph and shifted it right into 4th and I just chugged away and slowly but progressively gained speed up to 50 mph cruise pretty quickly. There's an uphill road that you can turn off onto a street with a way steeper hill I can turn off at 25mph in 3rd and leave it in 3rd and gain speed up that hill just TQs it's way up. It really surprises me how hard it pulls from 2000ish rpm, that seems to be the rpm where it really wakes up and the TQ starts rolling in. It's not a ripper but makes killer TQ for a small displacement short stroked engine.

[@ogsuperflygarage]

Awesome setup and great results!

[@faststang89]

Off topic but i'd love to see you guys come out with an 18in mesh wheel

[@bdrgarage7039]

If I remember correctly Tmoss had a 306, gt40p heads, his famous ported lower gt40intake stock upper, supported mods and was 288rwhp 334rwtq. 🤔🤔

[@969Garage]

Please do a 347 next . You know you want to ...

[@TheFogLakeshore]

This is an incredible motor for the money and 87 octane, it's just about calculator ideal and BP always gets more, in every test. But nobody wants their cylinder heads, most of all, I just want the block at $1200

[@CCWFOX]

Those are nice numbers for a engine replacement option. Best thing is y'all have them in stock so you can have everything done in a week.

[@Iceberg303]

Honestly, it would be nice to see an entry-level blower on this setup.

[@StLMikie]

Thanks for the video boys!

[@paulhudgins5120]

Awesome video, awesome job, and Yes do a ride & drive video.

[@dannykichar9066]

Great video you guys are so thorough do you plan on doing a carbed version or blueprint 347 stroker engine these are great engines for the price like to see them with better heads afr maybe especially the 347

[@KingJT80]

Blueprint wouldn't use AFR heads because they use their own "brand" heads It's about economics and that would make it more expensive maybe a little out of people's reach even if the AFRs are clearly better heads vs an as cast "overseas" head

[@latemodelrestoration]

Thanks for the great feedback. We're always pursuing parts/accessories that best fit our lineup and interests of our customers. I know that doesn't directly answer your question, but we don't really touch base one parts we plan on offering. In that, we appreciate your feedback and interest in a 347 option. -Landan

[@jlem8968]

Take it to the track for some 1/4 mile numbers

[@JoeStoppinghem]

Now, take out to see what MPG you get on a normal run. Also, that’s a nice range of power, enough for some fun without getting into too much trouble.

[@jsimmonstx]

The diff in crank hp and rwhp is called "parasitic drive train loss", and is a combination of everything you mentioned. Typically, you should expect at least 15% loss (manual trans). So if they say 361hp, you should expect about 306hp - or less. Your numbers are showing a 21-22% loss from the crank hp numbers, which could be chalked up to weather (a July dyno run in central Texas).

[@Haulass95gt]

Mostly likely a combination of the small primary shorty headers, weather and a little EFI loss being as it's not as dialed in as a carb that goes on the same build over and over.

[@aaronliddell4280]

AKA “Taxes” 😉

[@jjd975975]

Those 2.73s got to go

[@toranzoM]

Im leaning towards their 347. Although this is no slouch

[@kennethrobinson5151]

My buddies AFR headed forged 347 takes 100 shot of nitrous to run with my coyote swap

[@toranzoM]

@kennethrobinson5151 I love the old school sound of a pushrod so my thinking is, if im gonna go 302, for not much more I can go 347. I understand why guys like coyotes tho.

[@latemodelrestoration]

They're 347 is solid option. You can't go wrong with either one. It seems like making the big decisions are always the struggle when building/modifying/restoring cars. -Landan

[@jeffrandall3965]

What size injectors do you recommend for this setup?

[@blackenigma1054]

Can we expect a predator swap into a foxbody in the New year?

[@jplperformance9073]

I wish the sold just the block

[@jamalbee596]

FYI for yaw who don’t know about “Dyno Day” aka Dinosaur Day. Dinosaur Day is celebrated on May 15 and June 1 by people young and old to relive their most fascinating dinosaur fantasies.

[@AfghanVet8888]

Oofta. I made that with a gt40p set up.

[@mustangdanny97]

What size injectors are you running in this car with the blueprint engine?? Would 19lb injectors be good on my car since it won't be modded or raced??

[@latemodelrestoration]

We're using 24lb injectors and would recommend you do the same. -Landan

[@mustangdanny97]

​@@latemodelrestorationok thanks so much Landan.

[@oilgasproductions]

Wish they can restore my 9t foxbody

[@heffytomad4741]

Just an FYI some 88 car were maf cars

[@latemodelrestoration]

Thanks. We know this. Sometimes it's just easier to keep it simple. The mass air cars you're referring to for the 1988 MY were California only. -Landan

[@Al-wh4jz]

Have to run 4.10s or 4.11s with a TrueTrac diff.

[@TheTkrum]

Considering a roush/yates nascar engine swap in a 2nd Gen L…

[@royrichardson9164]

What size injectors and fuel pump?

[@latemodelrestoration]

24lb injectors and a 190lph fuel pump. Both available on our site. -Landan Injectors: lmr.com/item/LRS-37263/mustang-24-pound-fuel-injectors-bosch-type-3-8604-ev1 Fuel Pump: lmr.com/item/LRS-9350B/1986-97-Mustang-190-Lph-Walbro-Gss242-Fuel-Pump

[@rafaelhidalgo7103]

I wish you guys would sell a4.6 3v forged engine

[@twotrackjack2260]

Most people would just go coyote at that point. The factory coyote heads are FAR superior to the 3 valve.

[@rafaelhidalgo7103]

@twotrackjack2260 it is a better engine of course but too many issues come up electrical and it's super expensive not to mention tuning issues

[@24theMoney]

What about the cost of this engine?

[@latemodelrestoration]

From the description: BluePrint Engine: lmr.parts/BPE-302RCT

[@imakeituptoyou]

Ok so how much $?

[@curtismccombs2212]

$5,799

[@latemodelrestoration]

At this time, $5,799.00 (without taxes and shipping costs): lmr.com/item/BPE-302RCT/blueprint-engines-302ci-361hp-long-block-crate-engine

[@Lonewolf68149]

🙌🏾🙌🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾😎😎👏🏾👏🏾

[@Lethal_Venom]

This thing would give my whipple swapped Terminator quite the beat down

[@jro6497]

Figured it would make more than that, kinda unimpressive

[@yoloxxjd1]

Net vs gross pay lol

[@hotrodray6802]

drivetrain loss: 29 % hp drop. 21 % torque drop. 🤔🤔😳 6 yrs ago did BPE crate street 347. Great engine. Driven a lot and long trips and has been trouble free.

[@Haulass95gt]

Multiple factors, those small primary shorty headers and an untuned EEC being the biggest.

[@beartodrift5345]

That’s a big TAX on hp from flywheel. Bummer, would’ve been nice to see you copy the exact specs blueprint used, fuel, carb etc.

[@Brutalford]

That's twenty five percent power loss within the drive line

[@dadyo63]

365 hp not much at flywheel ,they offer 1 over here in nz with 415 hp
