I am thinking of re-powering
I am thinking of re-powering my 1977 251 Chris Craft Catalina. I have been told that I could install a standard rotation (CW rotation viewed from the front waterpump end) engine and retain my original right hand propeller if I switch something around on the transmission. Anybody hear of anything like this? Any pros or cons to doing this instead of installing a RH engine. Current set up is the original 305K.
