Jim, What's the Crusader for? You may end up having to buy a complete boat to get one! The only CC that used them back the is the Separator (or equal). What parts do you need or is the whole unit needed? ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

Hi Pete-I need the whole unit for my separator I'm restoring-they were manufactured for Crusader by the Thermo Electron Corp.I've found out they were also standard in Gibson Houseboats.I know Jeff (connorsons) has a couple,but I think he is keeping them for spares.Gotta keep it original Pete !!!  ------------- Lakeview 1992 Barefoot Nautique 1967 Barracuda SS 1967 Chris Craft Cavalier |

Jim, I was going to suggest keeping an eye on ebay bur Jody beat me to it and even provided the link to one that up for bit now.  Go for it!BTW, I'd much rather have a Crusader than a Walters. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

| I had one that came out of a 66 Century Bronco.When my stepson was cleaning/organizing the basement for me one of his pillhead buddies saw all that vintage aluminum boat parts I was saving.I spent days hitting all the scrapyards to find my parts with no luck.That was part of a complete Ford FE V Drive setup.Very scarce good luck. |

Also more robust and complete units and parts are still being made and available. they also come at a 12 degree down angle. I know I would have no problem going to one of these in an older restoration. ------------- Hobby Boats can be expensive when the hobbyist is limited on their own skill and expertise. 1993 Shamrock "fat" 20. 2008 Nautique 196 5.0 |
