Please excuse my ignorance, but I'm considering purchasing a used boat. It's a 1998 Stingray 190 RS. The seller claims the boat has a 4.3L V6, but according to the Stingray website , the 4.3L V6 was not even an option on the 1998 190RS. Only the 3.0L, unless I'm reading the chart wrong.<br />Can I tell just by looking at the engine, which one it is? Will it not say right on the engine if it's 3.0 or 4.3? Most of the auto engines I've seen do, don't they?<br /><br />Thanks for you help.

Re: 3.0 or 4.3

A 4.3l will have six cylinders and teh 3.0l will have four. The engnine will also have decals on it to identify it.
