Don't fool around with any Merc Stuff. Listen to Lightspeed and Pure Energy and build a JC Performance Mill for what ever boat you decide on THolland.....

Sorry, but yes you are wrong. All the GM 496cube/8.1L engines come through stock with cast pistons, even the 525HP HP3.
There are aftermarket kits with forged pistons available now though.
