Yamaha marine 305?

Has anyone heard of a "Yamaha marine high performance" 305? I saw one for sale and seller said it made for sustained high rpm usage. I know its still only a 305 but I was wondering if it is likely to have any special bits in it

I have seen a pic and I'm sure its a small block chevy, a roller block, seller says

"1988 short block chevy this is a yamaha marine high performance engine (240Hp) crank and rods and pistons made specialy for sustained high revs"
