It is topped with CNC-ported BluePrint Engines aluminum cylinder heads and a matched hydraulic roller camshaft, providing exceptional airflow and a broad, responsive powerband.

Backed by BluePrint Engines’ industry-leading 30-month / 50,000-mile warranty.
The 427ci Small Block Ford achieved modern legend status through its use in the industry’s top Cobra and Cobra replica builders where it became known for producing massive power in lightweight chassis. These engines helped redefine the capabilities of the Windsor-based platform, particularly in high-end Cobra replicas and continuation-style builds. Weighing significantly less than a traditional big block, the 427 stroker enhances front-end balance, handling, and braking, making it a proven choice for performance-focused applications.
