Its probably a Volvo 270 or 280 drive. What year mid 80's?

Well considering the cost (free) just swap what you have to over and cross your fingers. But marine engines are really different, you might be able to get away with a car long block since the boat is light. You want to use as much of the currant engine in that boat as possible, check the cam it might be different.

Is this a lake boat? If so you might be able to get away without changing the manifolds and risers, if its used in salt plan on them.
