depends what you have now. Some of the 4.3's came with a 1.61 ratio. The ratio should be stamped behind the prop and zink. I believe it is also on the identification tag on the top of the outdrive.
doner boat is a 2003 silverline with a 4.3 volvo
the new boat is a 2008 stingray 205 LX not sure if its 4.3 or 5.0
whats the diffrences in gear ratio between the two?
ps the outdrive from the 2003 is SX model
thanks guys
