Thanks for the information. That's bad news about the modern type non-availabliity, but good news about Terrel Machine. I'm about 80 miles from Terrel Machine, and will contact about getting a couple of sets of packing for my pump. The bushings are tight in mine and the shaft looks very good.

I'd much rather have a mechanical seal/ball bearing pump on the Packard. The old style pumps are prone to leak coolant out and air in, and they can also allow oil or grease to get into the cooling system.
