I think several are waiting for info from Mat and maybe another poster who had a recent failure.

With the really questionable quality of the compensator valve being supplied from ??? as shown on this threadhttps://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=64104#forumpost64104 and the gasket issue mentioned starting herehttps://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=61201#forumpost61201 which may be present even in a professional rebuild, there is room for a question or two about the kits.

One thing also is the compensator valve spring some suspect as part of the issue with valve is still not included in a rebuild kit or apparently available from the vendors. I can understand it not being included in the original kits because the units were relatively new and springs fresh but after 50 years, one might suspect it too is tired and needs replacing.
