Hi guys..i am new here. i live in Denmark. and i am the happy owner of this special built 31. the body is not more than 15 years old. i have plans to use the car alot, and i am thinking of changing the straight 8 to a 50s straight 8 using a more moderne trans. the reason is off course a bit more power, but also the more reliable engine. its my first packard, so i really dont know where to look. maybe for a shop who could help me rebuilt an engine if i find one. maybe hop it up a bit.. and if you guys know what look out for. and especially not to look for.. thanks up front..Palle
