Admittedly, not many Mopar enthusiasts think of BluePrint Engines when it comes to considering a ready-to-run crate motor for their project car. That is, of course, until recently when BPE launched its line of 426 cubic inch Gen III Hemi-compatible engines. Is this the first that you’re hearing about these monsters? Then you need to catch up on both the naturally-aspirated and supercharged offerings that we at Mopar Connection Magazine detailed less than a month ago here.

Of course, ready-to-run Gen III Hemi crate engines isn’t the only Mopar offerings made by BPE; they’ve had their small block 408 cubic inch strokers in the catalog for over a decade. These high-revving rippers are turnkey and ready to drop between the fenders of your A-body, Ramcharger and everything in-between. Again, if BPE is a name new to you, it’s important you get a little better acquainted with one of the biggest, most reliable names in aftermarket crate engines.

Per BPE: Founded in a modest garage in central Nebraska, BluePrint Engines has evolved into a global leader, igniting nearly half a million engines for satisfied customers worldwide. With over four decades of dedication, founder Norris Marshall crafted engines for a diverse clientele, from local enthusiasts to competitive racers. Today, operating from a state-of-the-art 210,000-square-foot facility, BluePrint Engines delivers custom crate engines tailored to every horsepower enthusiast’s desires.

Its unwavering mission is to provide affordable, reliable horsepower that exhilarates drivers from the moment they hit the road. With meticulous engineering and rigorous testing, it has become the premier source for GM, Ford, and Chrysler-compatible engines, embodying the pinnacle of innovation and reliability in crate engines.
