Blueprinting would be documenting the actual tolerance encountered as you assemble the engine to ensure they're all w/in spec.

Those prices all seem reasonable.

What are your goals for the build? You already are turbo right?

i had the d-bomb turbo'd. I had to take it off for emissions and never put it back on because my clutch has been getting weak and my valve seals are kind of shit thanks to my cousin. But i have a new turbo for this motor, and i plan on driving it NA for a while. I mainly going for reliabilty with this setup, however i'd like to try and hit 300 whp, and probably run less on the street.
