Great visit from BluePrint Engines!

Kell & James from BluePrint Engines stopped by this morning for a visit! Our tech team showed them around and shared some of our latest projects.

What makes this partnership so special is that both Factory Five and BluePrint Engines are fully committed to working with customers to build amazing cars. Just like the crew at Factory Five, the team at BluePrint builds what they sell, ensuring top-notch quality and support.

BluePrint has been a longtime Factory Five partner, and their president, Norris, even drives a Factory Five ’33 Hot Rod! The team at BluePrint always goes above and beyond for FFR customers. The rolling chassis at the Build School? That’s powered by a BluePrint 427!

For over 10 years, BluePrint has never let a Factory Five customer down. If you trust them with your engine, they’ll deliver—every time.
