I have a CC LC yes, an “LC” motor. The only information I can find is that it was used briefly in ’36 or 37. It is rarely list in ant CC motors list or parts catalogues Does it share components with any other models?. Does anyone know if rebuild parts are available or have any information about it at all?

Regards, PK

Oh man, did I post in the wrong forum, shouldn’t buy stock or post on forums at
2: am.

It is a six cylinder, twin carb. About 225 CI and 125 hp. At a glance. It looks like every other CC six but for the letter “LC”. It was used only one year by CC. As best I can tell, I’ts unique in some way. Probably a variation of the equally sparse “L”..

Thanks, PK

It's a small version of the M series based on the Hercules JXB block.

Pickle it and store it. Install a M, ML, or MBL for using.

Thanks again,

Oddly, I just got off the phone with another guy. We came to the exact same conclusion.

Also halfheartedly looking for a Chrys. M47s. My boat came originally with a Chrysler Crown.

Thanks Again Drott,

PK

If the M series will fit I'd stick with that. The torque difference between an M series and a Chrysler 6 is like a Big block vs Small block. The M series is going to be a bit more expensive but a LOT more fun!
