"I'm sticking with my Titanic salvage theory."

Yes! I think that Robert Ballard found this engine on the seabed, it having been dislodged from the hull where the ship split apart just forward of the third funnel!

I deliberately didn't save the link to it - recently there was one for Studebaker similar to the Packard one Leeedy found that was similarly (and horribly) inaccurate. Apparently there was no attempt to edit it for correctness of information, spelling or pronunciation.

(This may be a duplicate.)
If so, DOUBLE THANKS for the link to the After Eight project blog.

Off topic:
Ross do you still have your "After Eight" project? If so, do you plan to finish it at some point in the future?
That was a great project and I was enjoying following your progress - then POOF! It disappeared!
I haven't been able to find the thread for the project here. I don't know what I'm doing wrong in setting up the search.

Thank you!

" ... So it was a marine engine"

A new application for one of the Marine Engines Packard built. It must have been a prototype for an inline 8 Marine Engine.

" ... part of me wonders if the car was under water at some point"

When I saw the images of the underside of the car I wondered then if this Packard had tried to play submarine at some point in its past.
Seeing these images of the engine makes that possibility seem even more likely.

Thumbs up!

Too bad they didn't use this. I think Leeedy has an image of one they considered that actually has a small floating level incorporated into it.
