CHRIS CRAFT COMMANDER FORUM ® .......A photo-intensive technical reference file and ongoing newsletter regarding the original fiberglass Chris Craft Commander. Our mission at this independent not-for-profit non-commercial web site is to "have fun and share information" for your individual personal use. Our main reference feature is the ever expanding MASTER INDEX Files which contain exhaustive photo and technical information on the Chris Craft Commander line (like these original brochure scans, featuring the iconic 38 Commander designed by Fred Hudson) , (an awesome collection of Chris Craft 427 tuning and specification information), and a few words about how to use the information in the forum, etc. Be sure to look at the information about the 2009 Lake Erie Chris Craft Commander / Roamer Rendezvous, second year in a row at Huron, Ohio, held in August of 2009 !! If you're a Commander fan, this will be an event you won't want to miss next time around.

We extend to you a cordial "WELCOME ABOARD !"

More Cam Info

Response to 327Q Camshaft Question
Thanks for the help guys, sorry the information provided was a little thin. I am sure that it is a regular Q and not a QL, it has the timing chain rather than gears and I do have the original ChrisCraft plates with model# etc.

Today I called the machinist who did the work and sold me the cam, he said that it was a generic cam that was ground by a local shop - Delta Camshaft. I called them and here is the information they were able to give:

Intake Duration @ .050": 202
Exhaust Duration @ .050": 213
Duration is 267 (I presume for both intake and exhaust)
Intake lift is .400"
Exhaust lift is .410"

I haven't taken a chance to compare that to what is available from summit, etc; but I will do so tonight.

Thanks for your help,

Derek
