The AutoLite distributor cap has a resistor plug in the center terminal. Your ignition system is being over suppressed with the resistor distributor cap plug, resistor wires, and resistor spark plugs. You need to eliminate some of this suppression. Obviously, the distributor cap needs to stay. Vintage ignition systems cannot tolerate the suppression of the modern high energy systems, Your mechanic used modern practice and parts when tuning-up your Clipper. Have him start by replacing either the wires or the spark plugs with non-resistor type and see how your engine runs after this. You may need to revert back to both non-resistor wires and plugs to restore performance.

Dear Clipper55
Any of the major Packard vendors can supply wires and if you want Packard 440 wire then you can get that from Dwight Heinmuller. If radio noise is a problem then you can get capacitors and a ground strip for the hood that will wipe that out.
