WE ARE YOUR ENGINE SPECIALISTS

This engine is the biggest secret in MerCruiser's engine line up. It is rated at 440HP from MerCruiser, but what they don't mention is that it is rated at 4600 rpm. The reason they had to limit the horsepower rating on this engine is because, if they rated it at what it really makes, it would fall into the MerCruiser Racing line of engines. This would mean a different pricing level, along with being restricted to MerCruiser Racing Dealers only, instead of being available to all MerCruiser dealers. The engine does have a factory rev limiter set at 4600 rpm, so if more power isn't necessary for you, just leave it be. However, to unlock the true potential of this engine, we can supply you with the 5200 rpm ignition module which takes this engine OVER 500 horsepower -- 520 horsepower to be exact -- and BIG torque. Add anaftermarket exhaust, and pick up another 30 horses!!!!


J&J Marine knows this because we put one of these on our SuperFlow Engine Dyno. After building countless 540CID engines and knowing how easy it is to get 600hp out of one (even with stock rectangular port heads, which is exactly what this motor has), we could not fathom this motor only making 440hp. We knew the compression is on the low side, but it just did not add up. So when one of our customers ordered one, we placed it on the dyno before installing it. That is when we realized it had a 4600rpm limiter. After one call to our MerCruiser rep, he let us know the deal and gave us the part number for the 5200rpm module. This motor is 100% complete!! A true plug and play with a warranty.



So if you want MerCruiser Racing Performance without the MerCruiser Racing price tag, along with a 1 year warranty (3 year available), this is the engine for you!!!
