    Racing engines tend to be blueprinted as a matter f fact. Im no mechanic but i think it means the engine components have been balanced and the large machine tolerances that are usually allowed are removed making the engine more as the original measurements determined.

    I always thought blue printing has getting the component tolerences as tight as possible for example if a certain component had a tolerence of +/- 2mm then blue printing would involve getting that tolerence down to say +/- 1mm.
