Key Features of BluePrint Engines BP302CTCD

• Seasoned Ford 302 Block (1-Piece Seal): Secures the rotating assembly with maximum clamping force to prevent oil leaks and block flex under heavy loads.
• Aluminum Cylinder Heads (60cc Chambers / 2.02″ Intake): Maximizes airflow velocity into the combustion chamber to deliver massive mid-range horsepower.
• Hydraulic Roller Camshaft (.509″/.509″ Lift): Reduces internal valvetrain friction while producing an aggressive idle and immediate throttle response.
• Hypereutectic Pistons (9.4:1 Compression): Optimizes fuel burn rates to generate high horsepower on standard premium 91 octane pump gas.
• Pre-Installed 600 CFM Carburetor: Provides precise air and fuel metering for instant turn-key performance out of the crate.
• Dual-Plane Aluminum Intake Manifold: Promotes equal fuel distribution to prevent lean conditions in demanding street and strip environments.
• HEI Distributor (Pre-Installed): Delivers consistent high-voltage spark to prevent high-RPM misfires during aggressive acceleration.
