Just finished a 51 300 327 and I spent $1000. for gasket kit, rings, bearings and valve job. I did all the labor pulling the engine and trans and reinstalling it. I probably spent another $1500. on sundry items and doing the interior, which I did myself as well. It has been a learning experience with a lot of frustration due to the fact I have never worked on a Packard before. Jim
