Default MERC 565 vs 525
How much is it to upgrade from the 525 to the 565 package?

Why call it an upgrade, the 525 has been one of mercs best performance engines and alot of them make nearly 565 hp. If u want more hp save your money and put a whipple on it and get nearly 800 hp reliably.

Yep. There are quite a few upgrades that the 565 hi -perf engine has over the 525.
We received a customer order for a 2013 Checkmate 26 Convincer with a 565 to be built here shortly.

How does the 565 compare to the 600Sci price-wise?
