to PackardInfo. My thoughts, in addition to the others from the more experienced here, relate to your block as well as the water distribution tube. Were the block;s water jackets thoroughly cleaned before the engine was rebuilt to remove any crud buildup? The water distribution tube can be easily cleaned, the main problems are removing the radiator and water pump to access it, but I believe it can be done in car. Ensuring these are free of any buildup or loose particles will certainly help in the cooling system doing its job effectively.
And, I invite you to include your '52 in the Packard Owner's Registry here, together with a pic, any known history and how you acquired it?
