Packard offered the 327 cu. in. 300 engine as an option for the 200 and 200 Deluxe models. Was this engine also offered as an option in the 1952 200 and 200 Deluxe, and the 1953 Clipper? Thanks

Yes at least for 1952, the production code was "OE" for that option in 1952. You can find that information on this website where many of the production codes (RPO codes) are available.

Dave, you are correct, the 327 cu. in. 300 engine was also an option for the 1952 200 and 200 Deluxe. There is no mention of the engine being an option for the 1953 Clipper (it was standard equipment on the Clipper Deluxe).

Was it also an option for the '51 200's?

Not according to anything that I have read.

Edit: Disregard the above. The option was first available in 1951. Beginning in March of that year.
