Looking for new power for the Baja. In search of a 385-500 hp motor. 454/496/502/...
Anyone have a spare sitting around that you want to sell???
Or know somebody that has one they would like to sell?

What type of Budget?
Offshore performance specialties in Ft MYers does alot of repowers. They have some 496 + ho's. I was going to do the same to my 272(swap a 454 mpi for a 496) but really decided then I wanted a bigger boat. Give Donnie a call 239-489-0884.

I think a 496 is about 9-10K.

I met with Donnie on Friday and discussed different options. Prices have gone up. 496HO is about 13-14k now. He has a "Demo" motor. One of Mercurys less than 5 hour motors that they warranty just like a new motor, for a little less.
Just thought I would ask around, see if there were any other options out there.
I appreciate the info. Looks like I am on the right track.

Terry,

What motor is currently in your Baja? I take it that it isn't salvage-able?

Hey Craig,
I have the stock 454 MPI Magnum 385hp. It is seized up. Not sure of the total damage at this point. If it is terminal, I would like to upgrade on the HP on the next motor. If it is not terminal, I would like to upgrade the HP! lol

You can check with Little Bill @ Victory Marine in ****enson, Texas, I think he has some rebuilt 496's he sells reasonably priced under 10K.
