Engine swap 6.2 to 496 Mag HO
 

Does anyone know what it takes in swapping between these to motors. Will the engine mounts match up, wireing, etc.

Thinking of getting the 496 HO then putting on a whipple later on.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Most stuff won't swap ,,and if I was spending the money I'd go bigger than 496's and go with something non merc. to save money and get a much better more h.p. ,on &on !!!:D :chimp:

I do know for a fact that the 6.2 does swap directly with the prior big blocks (454/502 Mag MPI). There was an article a couple of years back where BOATING magazine tested a 377 Scorpion (6.2L) vs a 454 Mag MPI in the same boat (24' Baja H2X). They swapped the engines in 45 mins at Lake X. Not sure about the 496's.
