So, for you engine guys - what would it take to "marinize" something like that, and would it be worth it?

Talked about a lot here;

Car desighed engines in boats are not always good... B4M made the good point as follows in this thread.

Blower pistons are a must with that much power expected out of it...and a high quality set of rings too.
More clearance in the rod bearings for oil flow to remove heat from the bearings.
Re balancing the rotating assy...If its anything like the ZZ502 it will rattle it's self to death in no time.
If your looking for a 1000hp blower motor you better plunk down the cash for top of the line internals...not to mention a beefy aftermarket block...There is no such thing as a cheap marine blower motor making 700+hp.
I not slamming this bad assed crate motor, but it is not for powerboats...I read alot about people blowing up the 502s running them at the track.
I know nothing about detailed marine engine building but learned a bit while having mine built.

Oh, and we did'nt even talk cams and valve train yet....

That was me? Sounds like my pre-40's cocky-ness. I think someone wanted to drop a blower on the 600hp lower cr one in that thread.

well as you saw in the video they ran it on the dyno overnight. For most applications this engine makes enough power w/o the blower.
