G'day 1940 110,
to PackardInfo. That is a strange one, could the Eight # have been renumbered to that of the Six # it replaced? Putting aside the conumdrum of the engine number, I invite you to include your erstwhile '40 110 and the 1938-40 Henney Ambulance, referenced in your profile, in PackardInfo's Packard Vehicle Registry

How does it fit? The 110 has a shorter hood. Have you measured the wheelbase?

Any pictures? That may help.
That serial number is indeed a Six motor. I would imagine an eight would be just cramped in there and require firewall/radiator placement modifications in the a shorter engine bay of a six.

An eight would never fit a 110 chassis which I know from experience, having bought a 1940 110 in which someone tried to put a 120 engine. The front of the engine was resting where the radiator needed to be.
