1935 1202 sedan engine rebuild
Posted by J-Dreamer On 2024/4/20 11:08:41
Looking at buying a 35 Packard that will need the engine gone through, owner says it has a rap noise in it and needs to be gone through with a rebuild. We can all imagine anything from a wrist pin noise to a bearing failure. My question is, any members that rebuild short blocks, or recommendations to machine shops that can handle the crankshaft grinding-if required, and the piston rod modification to handle bearing inserts. Also, recommendations for the rod bearing manufactures.
I'm getting to old to do this kind of work, but have other projects, but want to save this Packard from someone inserting a newer engine replacement. Plus, I like the old gal to drive around town. The engine should be a 320,hopefully attached pictures will insert. I like the 1935-1937 era and still would persue a super eight to tweleve in those years, especially the limos,
Thank-you, Joe
