Abstract:



THE new Packard automotive diesel engine is reported to feature reductions in weight and space occupied, while maintaining good life expectancy.

It is available in 6-cyl in-line, V8, V12, and V16 models. These models all have a large number of interchangeable parts. They all have the same bore and stroke.

According to the authors, noteworthy points of these engines include: 1.

Extensive use of aluminum.
2.
Turbosupercharging.
3.
One-piece cylinder and head assembly.
4.
Four valves per cylinder, with stellite seating surfaces on valves and seats in the head.

Maybe the model has a one-piece cylinder and head assembly.
Is there anybody, who has access to the whole SAE papers?
