Re: Clutch throw out bearing part # help

Don't know how much help this is, but Hollander's gives their interchange as bearing #A477 for Packard 1929 thru 1934. Same bearing for 27-33 Cadillac, 32-34 Franklin (some models), 31-33 LaSalle, 36-37 Lincoln, 32-37 Pierce-Arrow, and 27-32 Reo (some models).

EDIT: Took a look at a retired throwout bearing I had for my 34 Eight, made by BCA (Bearing Corp. of America), bearing #2E. This is of course an open bearing that is lubricated by the Bijur system via short hose link and a very restrictive drip plug. There is a replacement fully-sealed bearing that most folks substitute these days, and then just crimp off the Bijur line.

I see nothing in the 7th-12th series service letters on topic other than for the Light Eight bearing lubrication.
