BluePrint Engines Pro Series Base-Dressed 800-Horsepower LS GM 427 C.I. Crate Engine with a Holley Terminator X Max EFI System.
Grab a powerhouse that’s LS compatible via BluePrint Engines! From unleashing 800 horsepower to 780 ft.-lbs. of torque, their LS GM 427 C.I. crate engine (PSLS4279SCT) is a potent assembly. It’s built around an LSX-style block made of cast iron with a forged rotating assembly. That primes it for serious load and heat without giving up stability.
