Even the reverse rotation engine is good because most of the engine doesn't care which way it spins, just the cam and stuff like starter. Pistons may be turned around backwards on the rods too.

GRAB EM!!!!!!


Don

First thing I looked for! Yes, they are cross bolted! And Pat is correct about the hash marks on the cranks. I did "Grab'em" and got them to the shop. I will have to wait to inspect them over the weekend tho... I's appreciate the address for the chris craft website that had the forum...
