What the........never heard of it. Blueprinting an engine involves exact measurement, fitment, and balancing of components. Is someone trying to charge you money for this service?

Only thing I can guess it that he had the fuel flow measured and adjusted so all the injectors were flowing the same while on the rail.

Yep, I did have my fuel rails and injectors blueprinted. All of the injectors now flow exactly the same amount and the rail have been replated. I also had the injectors checked out at incrementally higher fuel pressures to see what they'd flow - which resulted in my statements (in other threads) that our stock injectors can handle up to 300 hp as long as you've got an adjustable fpr. SVXFiles, ShotgunSlade, and TomsSVX are all running adjustable fprs.
