$22,000 WILL GET YOU THIS
I am selling 2 complete HP500 carb motors. Fresh with ZERO hours. Rebuilt by GS Marine. They also have CMI exhaust on them. They will be completed in 2 weeks and won't last long!!

The only thing not going with the motors is engine mount(s), bell housing(s) and power steering reservoir...I'm pretty sure that's all. I need to check with GS marine. the reason I say that is because my boat has a full stagger, and some of the parts (listed above) were custom made for the boat and need to stay with it.
Let me know if you're interested.

Dont want to try and outdo anyone here, but I also have 2- 500 hp carbed Mercs that are being rebuilt as we speak and are complete with Gil exhaust, mounts and evrything else complete for under $20k.

Also, Give Rick a call at Innovation Marine in Sarasota. They have some 600hp efi engines with Eikert exhaust for $18k a piece. Im repowering my boat with a couple of these babys in the upcoming weeks

tell them I said hello
