Count the splines on the prop shaft. Also V6 gearcases are 4-3/4" wide at the rear.

It sounds like your tach is either bad or the wiring is not making a good connection somewhere. Does the motor charge the battery?

Ditto on the temp gauge. Ground the temp sender wire at the motor and see if the gauge moves. If not find the break in the wiring, of find out why it is not getting +12VDC or Ground.

just know if you got to count the splines, youll have to take your present prop off first!!!

the V4 is a tad over 4"

so not a good eye ball difference...you should use a tape measure.

the splines is the easiest check

as for the guages, have they ever worked while have owned and used the boat??
