Somewhere in the Packard lore there is reference to discussion, probably no more than a whimsical wish, of a V-12 companion to the new V8, but nothing even remotely serious evolved from it. What few efforts they had the time and $ to focus on engines were being focused on fuel injection, originally hope for introduction in 1956 or 1957. Management's attention was so focused on matters of simple survival I doubt the concept of a V12 ever got beyond a pipe dream, and a fleeting one at that.
