One more thing. Increasing plug gap and installing a hotter coil may give a better spark. But it may also cause arcing in the distributor cap. Ford and Chrysler cars with electronic ignition have ribs inside the cap for extra insulation or isolation. I don't know what modern cap would fit on your Packard distributor but it would be great if there was.
