So I've been doing some online surfing, and looking at vintage bike builds. If earning a living wasn't mandatory, I'd spend my time building cool $h!t, like vintage motorcycles, cars (I'm a Corvette freak, partial to all pre- 1974's. I actually have a super sweet '04 project I put together, but I love the old ones), and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE 1940's-'60's mahogany Chris Craft and Hacker Craft speed boats. Especially the barrel backs.
Anyway-- I keep coming across write ups on vintage bike builds people have done, and the term "blueprinted" keeps coming up when they're talking about the engine. As in "The motor is stock, but it's been blueprinted". What the hell does that mean? Wasn't it blueprinted at the factory by the manufacturer? Like the parts breakdown? How is this any benefit? You can't get most of the parts anyhow? I was figuring that somebody here would put me up on the term. --L*64
