Welcome to FTE
Most sellers are clueless, and can lie worse than used car dealers, lawyers and fisherpersons.
99% of the time, they don't know one engine size from another.
In this case...measuring the stroke is the way to tell.
240: 3.18"
300: 3.98"

Use the two numbers provided by Bill to determine which engine you actually have.
