Re: Resurrecting a 1951 Henney-Packard Parts Car

If it’s not one thing it’s another! I was cleaning up the pan and found holes all over it. At least that explains why it was dry when I had no recollection of having drained it.
I walked over to the other side of the shop where I knew there was another 327 pan from a 1952 Patrician but was surprised that it was so very different! Much thinner with the sump area not quite going to the back end and with two partitions in it rather than a single one as in the Henney's pan. Maybe that's a difference on the 9-mains or maybe just a change between years. I do have another 1951 327 5-main but don't really want to take it apart.
