28Checkmate

I bought a 28' checkmate with a 454 and it is seriously under powered. I want to replace with a 5oohp merc verses building the engine i have. Does anyone know where i can get what i call a pull out engine where a new boat is upgraded to bigger engines?

Any help is appreciated!

Do you have any pics of the engine you could send me? What gen is the block? I might have someone interested. Thanks.
