I am rebuilding the engine for my 1934 320 cu in am looking for an exploded view of that engine

you are "rebuilding" a Packard Eight ?

and you want an "exploded" view?

There are so many places where you can find "elevation drawings" from both the front and sides of that motor I hesitate listing them all here for fear of taking up too much space and boring our "post-war" crowd! I do not recall seeing "exploded" views however.

Can you tell us a little more so we can advise you more completely & more accurately ?

Exactly what are you proposing to do ? Are you doing this yourself, or having it done by a competent engine rebuilder?

Most people have a "smart" cell phone these days that takes excellent hi resolution - good color saturation photos. Perhaps you have one & can you post photos of the areas you have questions about?

In addition to the many readily available (for example, in the 1933-36 Packard Parts List) views of the motor assembly and information in the 1934 Service Letters, you might also want to avail yourself of Packard's factory blue print #MISC 1-730 titled "Motor Construction Notes" for the 1934 Eight and Super Eight engines. Available from the Packard Proving Grounds.

Lonny,

Yes, there are lots of resources, but if you're looking for an exploded illustration of any Packard engine like this one, which I think you are asking about, forget it.

Jaguar created illustrations like this one for every single part of the car right down to the washer, and their manuals took owners step-by-step through disassembly of every single part as well. The British Empire was vast and its sphere of influence great, so it was selling cars globally before global was in fashion. The cars needed to be maintained and repaired in places far less developed, hence a greater investment in manuals and illustrations.

If you use the resources here, take pictures as you go, and ask for assistance here when you are stumped, you'll get what you need. But, of course, you will also need professional equipment and services for some things you can't do yourself.
