Greetings All, I am in need to replace my Vacuum Advance on my 42 super 8 160 356 ci. Any help on a part number or replacement number from maybe NAPA or other quality parts store would help greatly. I used the "tread" from West to replace my King Pings and all went well. His photos and advice was very useful. So any idea on the vacuum advance would be good, I checked the Packard X parts but did not find any suggestion on replacement numbers.

NOS or NORS and aftermarket units are pretty much extinct, your best bet will be a remanufactured unit from one of the major Packard vendors.

I got mine from Max-hardest part is connecting the tube to the new vac adv without cross threading it.

Thanks will take the advice, Dale
