I have 20,000 miles on my Blue Print 408 and it runs like a top. Never a problem. I drove it from North Dakota to Pennsylvania and back home and it loved it. Stopped in Chicago at rush hour traffic and did a downtown drive through and never a problem.

Figuring $1200 in machining, stroker kit with shipping $3500-3600... if i stud the bottom end $130+line hone.. if i go girdle and studs thats $500... will need a harmonic $200ish.. then the stuff you don't think bout... and gaskets.. $200-400... ends up around 6k..
 
That stroker kit is Molnar crank/rods and good pistons and stuff though.... i could get a CNC 408 kit with cast eagle stuff for like 1900...

I'm not sure what the cost is for a Blue Print turn key engine is but I'm guessing what you're doing is a cheaper on the pocket book ?
