can someone tell me what motors are in a 1987 28' Chris-Craft 283 Amerosport 262 ?

I’ve never done this style only having had the OMC Cobra which is very easy.
Gotta find a Crusader catalog. Maybe post up pix of what you have

if its a johnson or jabsco pump, the part number is on the stamped pump cover. google will get you a replacment pump or an impeller kit.

ok great thanks will look next time
hi again hope your summer is going well, maybe you can help me again .....she had water in 1 cly , still on land. Her guy pulled the manifold, said it leaking i guess , ports are so clean . I know she had an issue when she pulled it in fall as 1 motor was slow to crank, she has batts pulled so never had chance to look it over I was thinking leaking head gasket.... So she tells me the 4.3 was just used for two years...no manifolds to be found..., just for the v-8 i saw . Any input would be great thanks you again !!!!!

you would want to change from the batwing manifolds to the 2-piece.
