Did the Tri ever come with big blocks?

In 75/76 they had 2 engine choices on each tri cabin
you could get 255 hp mercs (351?) and 280 hp Chrysler 400cid (big block ) they were both V drives .
in 77 they went to mid engine straight drive , the 400 cid was also offered
, I have seen a few (very few) with 454 in them not sure if that was they way they came as a option or they where re powered,
The 280 hp added $1011 to the price

From the original slip supplied to me by John at Marine Tech, I remember it sold for somewhere around 60-63K.
