Good Afternoon...Has anyone ever read what the range of operating temperature a Packard 8 was designed for. Since many seem to run up to 195 or 200 at long lights, it makes me wonder if 200 was considered normal for a Packard 8 working at long lights in the summer time. Miss Prudence, our 1949 288 will come up to 195 at a long light in the summer and then if allowed to run for a couple of miles without stopping, will drop back down to 150/160. Ernie
