575 and 850 Bottom end

Are the short blocks a lot different. I am just curious how much the bottom end of a stock 575 will take. They must have a differn't Cam and heads..
Thanks for the input !!

The 575 bottom end is stout. Mercury used forged Crower crank and H beam rods. The 575 cam leaves a lot to be desired. I cant speak for the 850 lower end.
