That is why I chose the Merc 850, the motor alone should come in around $65.

For that kinda green I could have Zul build me 750hp easy + and imco drive to handle that power. With that purchase JC has to scrub my porta potty once a week too!!!
So I voted other!

I think custom power is a great alternative, but its nice to have the builder nearby, just incase you need them.
