no, the 2.3 had a unique lower and upper ratio
the 3.0 is a torquey long stroke 4, revving to 4500 only
the 2.3 is a screamer - high rpm engine revving to 5400
what pitch is your propeller?
I'd try a 13P prop
iboats also sells 11P to fit your drive, a Solas and a Quicksilver -but there is no exact science here... it's trial and error
or get the correct drive
the issue with props is the loss of efficiency out of the usual 15 to 23 pitch range
if you have a 2.3 drive, just use that.
You'd want to look up the gear ratios and do the math on overall -that combo might be a worse ratio than what you have. You could get a Seloc manual and a calculator and work out the different combos of upper and lower.
If the 2.3 drive upper failed, you will need to rebearing/reseal the lower at minimum, and I'm not sure of the mix-n-match capability of all the lowers and uppers year to year.
..maybe.
