Mercruiser HP 500 supercharged ?
 
How much power can you take out of these engines with superchargers. Stock internal parts,they are Gen VI ,and what blowers are best to use.

700 is realistic , 800 to 900 not for long and you'll be putting some good parts back in:evilb:

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!)
