6.0L 575 hp supercharged!!!!

No if MC is using the illmor's then that motor would be a V-10 But you can get the 6.2L S/C in the Malibu from Indmar so I believe you can get the same on in the MC enless they will use the v10 instead.

The ilmore option to Mastercraft is not the V10 motor. The options are 5.7L, 6.0L and 6.2L variants based upon the industry standard General Motors powerplants.

opps thats just what i figured since indmar already has the 5.7 and 6.0 and 6.2 hell why would i know i dont sell those higher standard boats anyways.

Sorry to jump in late on this... but had a thought. I really dont think that much power is necessary either buuut when you get into that large of a motor fuel consumption is an issue. I know turbo charged vehicles realize fuel consumption gains...is that the same for supercharged or is the savings lost in the gearing for the supercharger?

OK, no heres why....

Turbos and superchargers only get better fuel economy when they are on like little 3.0L diesels and tiny motors that are made to give them a little bit of power when needed. But when you strap a twin screw to a mustang or a turbo or 2 on there those are made for nothing but raw power and when you have something with 575HP its not going to be good on fuel.

Agreed, having that much power is fun but it isn't needed.

Horse Power?

I have a 2007 20i that I tanked the engine when the water pump failed. I replaced it with a 405 hp 383. I use the boat for barefooting. I am currently replacing the prop with a 13 x 15 to give me about 51 mph. It snaps your head from 20 to 45.

Well, it sure would be fun with that much power until you figured up your fuel bill for a summer.

There's more to the equation on fuel usage, weight, drag, prop, driving style, etc. A Tige with that engine might not use as much fuel as you think. I also heard that it's more than $10k for that upgrade. I went with some buddies to Powell and one was running his 25' Baja with a built 496 and Whipplecharger on it and the other was running his 24' Malibu with the 496 and the Malibu used more gas per day than the Baja did and he was running that thing around at 70+mph all day long!

Well theres your answer!

So I guess no one has added this engine option? If anyone does or knows someone who has; please post the pics and the stats. (not that ever would or could afford to but it would be fun to ride in I bet!)

With that much power you could probably go 3mph faster porpoising the whole time...totally worth it.
