no, just not sure if you had to have merc, and if you were looking at aftermarket, to buy in europe or buy them here.
plenty of builders here can do a 502block w/ 450hp.

Scrich, check with JCPerf on this site.
He's located in long island, NY.
Built my engine for my old boat.
There may be others on this site to do it too, maybe for less.
Post in the general forum for what you are looking for.
My guess is you'll be looking at 15K each.
You may also want to try Laz Mesa of Mesa Balancing in south Florida.

Hi,my name is Federico i'm an italian boy and Black Tornado(Marco another italian boy member of thi site)has sayed me that you have a great experience about engines! i would like to change my engines:2x330hp 7.4 v8 mercruiser that stay on magnum marine starfire 27.....and i would like put on about 420 hp for engine and take it around 450/470hp with the exhaust system!!!1
But i'm very uncertain for the choice of the model:new "496mag ho" or "old 502" or other else ,could you give me some advice?Remember that i love the rumbling!!!
Thank's federico.
Federico: What stern drives are you planning on running on the boat is a big question??????? I presume you have the TRS drives if you were running the Mercruiser 330`s. If so and you intend to stay with TRS you should have the transmissions rebuilt and modified for the bigger horsepower.
That`s why I suggested the Bravo drives etc. in my original reply to you. So it gets down to if you are replacing the complete engine pkg. or just the engines. If it is just the engines you will not need the bellhousings etc. as you will use your TRS setup, and have a direct replacement. Good Luck
