all of which is why Packard designed it that way.
Do you know if Packard did all the design and fab work in house or did they do something like they did prewar and farm it out to a refrigeration company and someone else came up with the details. I realize there was not a lot of choices for component placement without serious mods to the dash and car and the fact they did it with only adding the vents and one hole in the stock dash is commendable. The airflow inside the box and blower location in particular seems like an afterthought though.

By the way... there is one very easy way to know if the factory air in your V-8 was line installed... or dealer installed...
Would that be the firewall reinforcement around the blower opening?
