If it is only 1200# and 500 hp I would do up the seatbelt REAL tight !!!!!!!!!!!! I ran 250 hours @ 750 dyno'd Hp on a stock bravo 1 with no problems . Put XR's on the boat and broke one of them in less than 50 hours , go figure. The pro charger's are fed from the engine oil.

Looking back at my original post I missed adding a "0"...I meant 12,000# twin 540 ci with pro chargers...new style with their own oil reservoir. Sorry about the # type O
