Yes, I have had mine apart. Nothing to worry about, just remove the screws to get it apart. It took some time, but I made a thin gasket for mine to seal it up. I can’t remember what I used for a sealer… I think it was Permatex #1. I believe they were originally sealed with the use of a sealing compound only.
I saw your question about the gearcase, but I did not go into mine, so couldn’t be of much help. otherwise I have been completely through mine. Be careful though, the Challenger is such an excellent running motor, you will then want a Commander! Both the Chris Craft models are excellent motors, and fun to operate!
