But what you're listing there shows 1940-52 which is too early for this motor (based on the 1959 casting date you pointed out) also it lists the carb stamp as a 'c' which is not listed here.

I'm not trying to be obstinate, but this still doesn't seem right. That's an awfully early motor for a fiberglass boat from 1963.
Also, it looks like a 103 would have the tach cable drive out of the center of the cylinder head, which mine does not.

Do you mean "what is the firing order?" Six cylinder engines are about the only engines with a universally consistent firing order. 1-5-3-6-2-4. #1 cylinder is forward over the flywheel.
