Pat, I'm checking and have sent a email to a friend who may know the answer. He sometimes doesn't look at his email and I know this week he is out of town but I will see him at our chapter fall dinner on Sunday. Chris had this wonderfull marketing idea ($$$) to put their own numbers on purchased parts so you needed to buy the part from them. Over the years resourcefull people have figured out and crossed the numbers over to the OEM so I know the answer is out there. Do you have this prop? I know you were looking at buying a prop but had to get a new pair of Red Wing work boots instead!!
I just had to go and buy a new pair myself only to find that Red Wing too has cut back. The good old American tradition no longer makes the A or AA width I need! I had to go with a B width for the next 8 years. Half of their shoes are also now made overseas. It is very sad. I bought the ones made in the good old USA! |

Pat, Here's the answer. Sounds like you may want to consider a new prop.
"A #504 was a standard mfd by Michigan Wheel, but for Chris Craft had a special # stamped in the hub, was a type T-33, 12 X 12 right hand rotation 1" shaft. It was superceded later by Chris Craft to a #634, which was a type T-36 11.5 X 12 RH 1". The T-33 is an old Equipoise design, very similar to the modern Dyna-jet. The T-36 had slightly larger blade surface and was only sold to Chris Craft. Among others, these screws were used on the 18' Continental w. 95HP K engine & 19' Holiday w 95 HP K. Since these props are so old, the #504 was 30's or 40's, most have been shaved down over the years. If he is going to replace it, he should measure the radius to see what he has." |
