Pistons: Venolia Rings: Perfect Circle or Sealed Power Bearings: Michigan Engine/Clevite Valve Seals: Perfect Circle teflon seals Gasket sets: Need to mix McCord (best cork gaskets) and Victor (they have the thin steel head gaskets) Packard V8 stuff is getting hard to find through most auto parts houses; you need to go to the back of the catalog and order by size in the case of rings. AFAIR Michigan Engine still offered bearings not that long ago. McCord offered the gasket set, in fact they offered gasket sets for Packard as far back as '40. AFAIK McCord has discontinued the Packard 12 set. randee Dec01 ------------------ Pistons: SILVOLITE Rings: GRANT, Bearings: FEDERAL MOGUL AND CLEVITE,
