Dear Mr. Ozstatman

could your model be a Marmon 34 engine.
339.63 cui. Overhead-valve straight-six 74hp.
Block cast in light alloy.
No turbocharger.
But exhaust gases flow into "hot ring" atop carburetor to help heat incoming air during cold.

For Chevy lovers the Mark III is the missing link. A road to nowhere.
Elsewhere in this Forum it is told, the Chevrolet Mark III
is the Packard 1955 V8.

Is the Chevrolet Mark II (Keinath) the successor of the Witzky Hemi, some Kind of Patent Evasion? Or was the Packard Witzky patent sold to GM, when Studebaker ended?
Who knows!

Diesel injection

Sorry Mr Guscha, I ignored the updraft carb.

In the patent drawings from M. Ware and J. Witzky you could clearly see the injection pump.

Maybe you are right and the model is from the late 20's.

Could be a model of the Diesel car engine from the engineers

M. Ware, R. Taylor and J. Witzky

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?

Thank you very much for the explanation.

Is there a good source (Book) or where can I get digital press articles about Packard Research & Development? Maybe old magazines like Packard Cormorant, which I do not know.

Was there ever a Packard V12 engine prototype and/or car prototpye developed under John Reinhart? When I look at the Lincoln Continental Mark II and the too long engine compartment, its obvious John Reinhart brougth it over to Ford, when Packard did not build it.

Does anybody know more?

I have found the following patents for Packard fuel injection
