Re: How much demand is there for PV8C oil pump adapter kits?

With all this talk of cam plates and lockup converters, people have missed the whole idea of this thread, whether or not there's a big demand for the Olds adapter kits. The Olds conversion is the end-all solution to the Packard V8 oiling problem, plain and simple. Grinding on gears on a 50+ old junk oil pump that wasn't worth a $hit when it was new is about like a monkey fornicating with a football.

Lockup converters wouldn't cause premature bearing wear IMHO, since the Ultramatic was in use since '49. Unless of course you're all admitting that the straight eight is a better engine than the V8, and is immune to the premature wear that plagues the Packard V8! LOL!
