Looks to be a Borg Warner trans common to Packard and others.

Back-tracking through the parts books, P/N 333571 turns up in the Numerical Index of the 35-41 book (Gr. 3.202). The subsequent application listing is a transmission case, with 4-bolt rear bearing cover, for 17th, 18th, and 19th Series - that is, 1939-41.

Just an aside.I believe Packard made their own transmissions and rear ends.They did not use Borg Warner Trans or Dana rears until the advent of the 56th series.

Precisely. 39-41 non-overdrive short tailshaft 3spd. Small input shaft for 6 & small 8 cylinder engines. Would require different input shaft for Super 8 engines. Would need to know U-joint flange dimension to differentiate whether it came off a 6 or 8 cylinder car.
Do you have the top cover? PIcture please.

"Small input shaft for 6 & small 8 cylinder engines. Would require different input shaft for Super 8 engines. "
Is there significant difference or is it possible to get away with changing clutch disk and pilot bearing to allow interchange between the 6,8 and Super 8??

Yes, quite a difference. The Super 8 requires an 11" clutch, whereas the smaller engines used a 9.5 or 10" clutch. The clutch forks are different such that the different throwout bearing/collar eliminates any chance of switching things around. Trying to mix throwout bearings that will not interface properly with the clutches and input shaft collars results in game over.

Borg-Warner did make transmissions/overdrives for Packard at least as early as the 22nd series. Visually, they seem to be the same as earlier Packard transmissions of the earlier design top loaders.
