You are correct. I checked my notes and the anti-theft number starts with a B. I will get the other numbers soon. Sorry it has taken a while, I am 100 miles away and it is nears my Dad's house. If Dad can check it soon, he will, otherwise, I have to get back there myself.

The engine number is K421860. I can't seem to find a number near the heater, though. Where is it supposed to be exactly?

The engine number is K421860. I can't seem to find a number near the heater, though. Where is it supposed to be exactly? By the way, I can't seem to find the section of the website that lets me know if the engine in the car could be the optional engine. Can anyone help me navigate to the correct section?

It's right on top of the heater, on the firewall. It's kinda hidden by the little shelf made by the joining of the top and bottom pieces of the firewall.

Your engine number indicates that it is the "300" optional engine offered for the 200 and 200 Deluxes. It is a 327 cu. in., 5-main bearing, hydraulic valve lifter engine. Congratulations.

Edit: Go to the Packard Literature and Manuals section and you will find a summarized engine specification table there.

Thank you for the information. I knew I had seen the information on here before.

I will also try to re-check the number by the heater. Thanks.
