Apparently so based on prices at some of the retail places. Summit, for example has them from around $1300 to over $2k. Another place lists them available for cars or trucks and again the units are differently priced. Another place rates them by horsepower -- from 275 to over 1000 and again differently priced. Can't be sure because of the photo angles but there looked to be some bellhousing differences on one or two of them.. Are those used on a 4 cyl the same as a V6 or V8?

I would think 275hp would be smaller or maybe not as many clutch plates and 1000hp would have some kind of fancy racing mods. Seems there would be some internal differences for the different prices. I was just wondering what the differences are and which one people are choosing for Packards.
