Default How to determine the hp, on a Mercruiser 5.7?

Correct. But I suppose in the whole long run, and with exception of
running the drive train on a dynomometer, there's really no way of
telling if the re-man engine is truely build to O.E. origional stock
factory specs, unless the engine was torn down and spec'd out.

Which obviosly isn't worth the hassle.
