I'm putting small (M1) Prochargers on my 500HP's with HP525 cams. MSD ignition, IMCO exhaust and Cometic gaskets. 5 lbs boost or less. I had the Prochargers on hand and Procharger says they'll work.

Great engines for supercharging. We have dynoed many with centrifugal superchargers and big intercoolers. If you make less than 800 HP, something is wrong. Cylinder pressure and bearing loads have all increased by 60% so upgrades like head gaskets and rod bolts are in order.

700 is realistic , 800 to 900 not for long and you'll be putting some good parts back in:evilb:
and i guess runing hot has has his fair share of experience pushing the envelope.:drink: |
500 hps do react well to supercharging, but I would be more worried about whats behind the engines at that point, stock bravo drives don't normally react well to superchargers LOL...and might I suggest replacing the factory oil coolers with some much larger ones :D

I have a 454 Gen V HP425 with a B&M 174 - is this block the same as the 500hp and if so does that mean its bullet proof (English expression for long life with abuse!)

That's what I thought. The boat had an eagle head with stars and stripes on the sides. I looked HARD at that boat but OSO member Schweeng had already struck a deal with the original owner (John Gregorio if I'm not mistaken). It went to the west coast where it was sold again but it still resides there. Did you originally SC those motors? I remember it saying MONSTA 800 on the flame arrester.
