The BBC fits in the C4, remember BigDoggy? This engine is a 552 inch DOHC, TT Mercury produced engine.

Might need a power bulge hood for this engine in a C4. The 1650 requires 110octane race fuel, the 1350 does not. 7.8:1 compression on both.

These are Mercury Racing engines, 1 year limited on pleasure application, no warranty at all on the 1650 engine.

Length (in/mm)26.69/678 (from back of block)
Width (in/mm)34/864
Heiqht (in/mm) 29/737 (from crankshaft centerline)
Weight (lbs/kg) 1720/782

Warranty

1-year limited for recreational boating

Mercury lists the M8 drive as weighing 280 lbs, so that 9.0L DOHC engine is a heavy beast. 0-150mph in 13 seconds on the water is Miss Geico.
