I have a Chrysler Crown 6 cylinder engine and I am trying to figure out its age. It is A S M7 #33141. The carb is a Zenith S639B. Per thecarburetorshop web site this carb was used in 42-43. I know the carb doesn't guarantee engine age but it is all that I have to go on at this point. This was during WWII. Were there a lot of personal watercraft being built during the war? Could this engine have been used in something military? Just curious at this point. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks |

My 46 book shows an industrial 6, 230ci years produced 44and45.Aparently they were still selling a similar model in 58 with a differant model number.The old ads in the 46 book say an engine with a pedigree and show a team of horses pulling something.No mention of crown. |

I have a Chrysler Marine Engines index that shows the M7 Crown starting with serial number M7-6401 on 6/27/41 and ending with M7-34664 on 1/30/48. Your serial number is certainly near the end of the range, so I would guess it was 1947 or 48. If you need a manual, see this link. |

I have a Chrysler Crown Marine Flat 6 on a 1946 Truscott Sport Fisherman (Type S M6 Serial # 16409, Head E-58636-M-Z-11-1). While the manual states that it originally had a Zenith S-639, it currently has a Carter BB-2. I am looking for a bowl and float or a rebuildable carb. Anyone have any ideas? |
