1938 Packard engine parts enquiry
Posted by SimonRoss On 2020/9/15 10:46:16
Hi All
Could you please give me a little help, based in the UK it's not easy contacting anyone here that's supposed to be part of the "Packard owners club" and the parts I need I assume will come from the states so............
My engine number is A500227 which means it should be a 1938 16th series 320, 8 cylinder and 130 HP Super Eight.
The raised markings on the block are 239768 and 8-18-37.
However, my engineer has established that it has a 3.25 bore and 5" stroke so it looks like it might have been bored out a bit.
The parts I need are:
Valve guides
A full gasket set
Possibly an oil pump unless there's a service kit available.
A set of valves.
Collets/cotters/retainers for the valves.
A timing chain and gears
A set of pistons.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a supplier?
Cheers
Simon
