Merc 525sc for 6500.00 ?

Did anyone else see this? There has to be a catch.

Probably needs to be gone through...I sold a pair rebuilt less exhaust for $16,000 about 3 years ago.

Great deal if it is in great shape, but if you have to rebuild it and go through supercharger plus your time and pain in the ass.....it is not a good deal.

The catch is that it's a 525-SC not a 525-EFI. Old school.

Nothing special about the motor, just a 454 with a small blower and flat tappet cam. I've seen them for 3,000 used with no headers, but needing rings. Those aren't high $$ CMI's either, probably worth 1500.
