    WTB Packard V8 gaskets

    Hi folks. I need to re-seal a 1956 374 cid V8 marine conversion. Basically need intake & exhaust, oilpan, valve cover, water pump ports (4 front, 2 rear) & fuel pump gaskets.

    Seems that the usual vendors are selling kits (valve grind and/or overhaul kits) which include a lot of stuff I don't need..(mainly head gaskets).

    If you have any of the above for sale please let me know.

    Thanks

    Packard8 -
    Sorry, I don't have your gaskets, but I do have 2 352 Stokes conversions.
    Is yours a Stokes, or other?
    Would love to see pix to compare w/mine

    Re: WTB Packard V8 gaskets

    Hi James, thanks for the reply. This conversion was done by Andres Marine, Stockton CA. Nice stainless manifolds and copper plumbing, dual thermostats etc. The block is a 1955 320 cid stamped "SP 087" where you would normally see the Packard or Stude GH serial number. Do yours have a similar S/N? Also, this has an extended oilpan with an internal cooler...does the Stokes? I'd be interested in seeing yours, and determining the correct raw water pump setup.

    Do yours have a similar reverse gear?

    Cheers,

    John
