Re: straight 8 & transmission interchange 1934 to 1937

The switch will not work. The '34 crankcase is cast with two "horns" which sit atop the frame rails. The 37 has no such "horns" and is mounted on an upside down U which sits on the front crossmember and attaches to the motor via a rubber insulated mounting to the timing cover.
The 120/Six are mounted in a similar fashion as are most models from 38 to 50. This is a result of the 34 with solid axle and 37 with independent front suspension and the vast frame differences. The engines are quite different: 34 has chain driven generator and the crankcase casting is different,. 37 is belt driven and timing cover is vastly different 34 has oil cooler fed from side of water jacket plate, 37 is fed from a gooseneck on side of block. I believe the crank, main bearings, rods, pistons, valves, lifters, cam rockers, lifters and possibly camshaft will interchange. The transmission will fit both the 34 and 37 James From Kanter Auto Products

Re: Hello and trying to fix wipers.

One thing that may help but not solve your problem is to rainx your windshield. It will make the wiper blades move easier and allow less effort on the part of your wiper motor. Obviously this is not a fix but it's something that will help and bead up water to provide clarity when driving.
My 56 400 had been converted to electric wipers by the previous owner. This had no effect on the charging system and worked flawlessly for many years. I believe he used a wiper motor off of a late 50's Chevy. If you do some searching on the forum you will see that there's others that have used it. The only drawback is it does not clear the large factory air cleaner. The air cleaner can still be installed but it will be cocked on an angle. James From Kanter Auto Products

Re: 1949 288 Custom Eight Packard Clutch

A 288 is not a Custom 8, it is an Eight which uses the 10" clutch which he has measured. Unfortunately there is no modern interchange that can be sourced local. We should be able to help or if there is a local shop that does relining of brake and clutches for heavy equipment and trucks you may be able to have yours relined. Please call our Packard Department if interested. We would have the pressure plate, through out bearing and pilot bearing as well.
Thanks James From Kanter Auto Products.

With the ornament turned all the way, try banging the trunk on the vertical part with the heel of your hand. Common problem on V-8's

Do not let the engine idle. start the engine and immediately bring it up to 2,000 to 2500 RPM. Vary the speed by a few hundred RPMs over the course of the next 30 minutes total, stopping the engine after the first ten minutes to let it cool down. Re-start and bring it back up to RPM and repeat through two more 10-minute run sessions to complete the heat-cycle break-in process.
