CHRIS CRAFT COMMANDER FORUM ® .......A photo-intensive technical reference file and ongoing newsletter regarding the original fiberglass Chris-Craft Commander series. This is an independent not-for-profit and non-commercial web site, not affiliated with the Chris Craft Commander Club ~~ or ~~ Chris-Craft Corporation. Our mission here is to "have fun and share information" about the Commander series (and those associated fiberglass boats on the Chris-Craft family tree) for your individual personal use, and by doing so help promote the good name of Chris-Craft, and help preserve, restore, and appreciate Chris-Craft boats. The main reference feature is the ever expanding MASTER INDEX File which contains what we believe to be the world's largest collection of documentation photos and technical information on the Chris-Craft Commander line of boats, (like these original brochure scans, featuring the iconic first 38 Commander styled by Fred Hudson, and many of the great Dick Avery renditions that followed) , (a huge collection of Chris-Craft 427 tuning and specification information), and a few words about how to use the forum.

We extend to you a cordial "WELCOME ABOARD !" Come on in, make yourself at home, we are a friendly group of enthusiasts, and we also appreciate the classic Chris Craft Roamer, Corsair, and Lancer boats too , as they are all on the same family tree and share much in common !

      Paul, Eric, and All:
      Thanks, Eric, and in the words of Pau1 P1etcher, "sheeesh"! I just now followed Eric's link, went to the shop and changed the direction in about 5 minutes. No big deal. A couple of notes for the next guy... Note that on the photo on the link you cannot see that there are TWO arrows opposite each other on the face plate but you can on the photo that Paul supplied. Make sure you get this right and bolt it back together. I missed this in my initial panic. And true enough, there are four other holes for the bolts to fit in, once you rotate it around. I just tapped the face plate lightly in a sideways fashion to get it to rotate. It does not have to come out, it will just slide around to the new set of holes. Where is this face plate? It is on the front of the part that bolts to the bell housing. In fact, you do not have to take anything apart and can access the face plate with the bell housing still bolted on to the transmission and pump assembly.






      Now look at what I have:

      Thanks,
