Thats a V20!! But I think the transom has been replaced, there fore the VIN will be gone.
Got a lot of work to be done there but she should be great when done!! I had the 165 in my cuddy when I bought it, it was raw water cooled and it ran good the first few years but was rotting from the inside out! I had to replace the head (rot) exhaust riser and manifold (rot) after all that I said one more thing I am making it a Outboard, well it was running ruff and sounding weird, using oil but I was not going to look cause I knew I was going to try fixing it, so end of season I pulled the motor and converted to outboard with a bracket
The new used head I replaced it with rotted out fast and there was water getting in all over the place.
Good Luck with yours!! Get rid of all that plywood screwed to the floor and fix the right way also.
