Thanks for the reminder. Packard information is a wonderful place to learn and ask questions (smart ones and not so smart ones). I have enjoyed posting and reading the last 2 years. Thanks for keeping us focused on the Ask the GentleMen Who Owns One spirit of the website. DanL

John,
The 41 Clipper came out as a new model with the 282 cu in S8. What modifications were made in that engine to boost the HP by 5hp and increase the compression ratio? DanL

This is a fascinating discussion on this thread. I did not know the history and development of the 6s and 8s. Ross's comment is well made -- the Six as the 'father' of the Eight. I had not thought that way before reading this discussion.
I would think a dependable engine is made by improving a good prototype over time (years) of service and re-design. I did not realize that the bore, spacing and strokes are based on the same engineering proportions. Thanks to everybody for your comments. DanL PS: My Straight 8 screams at 60 w/o OD engaged.

Eric,
Your updated list still works slick. The list of exclusions may need to have its own "zip code" if it keeps getting any longer. Just so folks can appreciate it a little more, here is Eric's filter so far: Quote: Packard -carpartsdiscount-carpartswholesale-discountbodyparts-carpartsdiscount Seller: -discountautoparts kfking wolverine-diesel hugozhackenabush partsandplates cowboydave157 ppt bodyshopsupplies falconglobal californiacarcover pepinski9 covercentral petes_auto_data sandler_trust_wholesale car-colors johnnieeldorado jim3284 rubberroadmaster thet-shirtguy pitts-n8063 crackleandpop-com waljoy1 oldnewparts creyts vintageautoliterature daytodayimports covershield pcs_connectors carpartsdiscount detroit-the-motor-city carpartswholesale, -discountbodyparts Whooo..

Yea!
The digital camera. It is this DIY-er's best friend. What ever I take off always seems to look different 10 minutes, 10 hours, 10 weeks, or 10 months, later DanL PS: photos also help prevent head injuries ...

Eric,
Manual tranny makes sense. I've had trailer rentals make all kinds of requirements about Dolly trailers and rear wheel drive cars. Doesn't mean they know what they are talking about. I have pulled cars with a old 'front bumper hitch' arrangement without problem. Here's a picture of a WIDER wheeled Dolly that I would trust more. What ever works for your friend. He has a NICE lookin Packard. DanL Attach file:  (13.81 KB)
