PM me or go to Michianapackard.com

Have you checked with Terrill machine in DeLeon, TX? They had great parts when I rebuilt a '37 115.

Should be no problem at all, the two rather standard sources would be Egge and Kanter Auto Parts. Many of these engines are happily running on Egge pistons, my own '34 Eight included, and have been doing so for decades and decades. You'll have to see what's currently available, the originals were autothermic strut design with 4 rings, historically Egge replacements have been cast pistons with 3 rings per piston. No sure just what Kanter is offering at this time.

Lonny,

I know of a number of Packard owners that have had " Arias"
make their pistons, all very satisfactory !

Gardena, Ca. 90249 Tel. 310 532-9737

I don't believe they make the Strut type, but send them your specifications.

Packard 385

Arias pistons are happily going up and down in my 35' 320 eight. Had them made 15 months ago.
