I currently have 525sc's in my boat and would definitely consider these motors as a replacement if needed. The HP with light weight combo is a nice thought.

Any word on what they finally got this boat to run? what about the merc 565 boat?

Working on an update for speedonthewater.com. As soon as it's done it will go live and be posted here.

Neat package but the old saying goes "There is NO replacment for displacment" LS motors always needed rpm to make HP and tq is up high also. IMO I would run Big Block unless you add boost. Then little motor change its personality.

Ok 6mos later did I miss the update? what about that 565 boat?

The 570 Ilmor boat continues to accumulate running hours as a factory boat. Don't know why it (apparently) hasn't sold. The 565 boat is very much completely missing in action...
