I left them my FSM and I know that they joined this group when the started on the car. As to the specifics of your question, I really don't know. I know that the owner of the shop is old enough to be familiar with I-8's & flat heads. The rest of the crew had never seen one. That was changed when another long time customer of his came in, saw the Packard, and brought his 1926 Cadillac in for work.

I saw and read about the procedure in the link that Wesley posted but I really don't know if they did or not. I suspect Owen (the owner) knew about it. I'll have to ask.
