You have to remember that the Packard V8s were only in production 2 years, and it was a relative small production run compared to even one engine from any of the Big Three for a single year. I think almost every new engine has a period where things are learned from based on customer use, and wear and tear.

Packard just wasn't able to hang in there long enough to discover and improve those things.
