Are you certain it is an 115 inline six? That # does not match any 115 listed, 4 or 6 cylinder.

Serial Number: 0B300023 Model Number: 1115452BD

Great motor, and the last year the inline 6 were built.

It is an in line six, with those serial numbers on the plate. Is there any other numbers on the motor that I should look for? Thanks

The first thing I did was check that serial number here, which confirms it is an inline 6:

mercurypartsexpress.com

You confirmed it is a 115hp motor.

After that, I looked here to confirm that it is a 1988 motor:

(115 1988 s/n B239299 & above)
