OMC 2.3 to 4.3 swap?

[Keyboardman]

Hi all, I came across a OMC 4.3 engine and was wondering if it will mate up to the outdrive I already have in my boat on the 2.3l. Thanks

Ayuh,.... Wrong gear ratio,.... That's only viable if it's a pulleys to prop swap,....

Thanks. I'll keep looking for a 4.3 Merc to go pulley to prop.

Hey keyboard man - good luck with your search . One will come up. Remember at the end you will need to dispose of the old hull. Will be to watch the swap.
