That price is about right. The shop I've had a lot of custom engine work done for my Supercharged Denali builds race engines and they had and 800cui engine on the engine dyno when I was there last time. It made over 1800hp that day. They said it was around 100k for the motor.

Cheaper ?
we have an 814 Ford for a Pro Mod Mustang in the shop and it has over 100,000 in it +1800hp on motor plus 1000hp of spray on top of that friggin cool though.:coolcowboy:
40 plus hours just in the block to make everything happy.

600 cubic inch blown seems to be the best boat combo for now:evilb:
my two cents
which is only worth a 1/4 cent today:lolhit:

how much is a supercharger 1500 hp boat motor going for complete, dry sump system, turn key, i thought they were close to 75k?

They start in that neighborhood and go up from there, unless you are talking about Merc. There 1075 and 1200 is quite a bit more than that.
