Hardcore Mercrusier 496HO complete engine rebuilt with FORGED piston and rods
The GM/Mercrusier 496 is a great engine but has some flaws! So here at Hardcore we do things a little differently
and take care of the weak spots in these engines by installing aftermarket Scat 4340 rods with ARP bolts and Wiseco
Pro True forged pistons with Moly rings, Heads get NEW stainless steel intake valves and Crane Gold rocker and ARP stud upgrade.

we blueprint every engine to our strict specs for marine applications and as we know lots of guys add PROCHARGERS to these engines to make more power and go faster! But unfortunatly these engines fail quick with out the internal mods needed to take the boost! well good news this engine is PROCHARGER ready if you have one already or choose to add one to your boat later on!!!

Specs
496 Block Thermally cleaned and magged, bored and honed +030 then square decked and mainline checked
Crank magged and checked for straight and micro polished STD/STD
Rods Scat forged Pro I beam 4340
Pistons Wiseco Pro-Tru forged with coated skirts
Rings Wiseco Moly
Timing set Melling roller
Cam Mercruiser HO
Lifters Comp Cams
Oil pump Melling HV
Head gaskets Cometic MLS
Heads thermal cleaned and magged, New stainless steel 1 piece valves, 4/3 angle valve job and surfaced
Crane gold roller rockers and ARP rocker studs
Mercusier Marine oil pan
Mercuiser intake manifold

This engine is assembled but there are different cam gears and timing covers for cam sensor depending on year manufactured, we have all configurations and can change cam gear and timing cover to suit your application! this is important as the engine will not match your ECU and will not run without correct configuration!

Exchange $8500
No exchange $10,000

What kind of power and torque does your rebuilt 496 make if I wanted to run it with no pro charger?
