Packard Custom Eight Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1927–1950)

Packard Custom Eight Engines and Transmissions

The Packard Custom Eight engine in these examples is a 5.8-litre gasoline unit driving the rear wheels, tuned for smooth pulling power low down. Buyers could pair it with a manual gearbox, as in the 5.8 MT Sedan, or the easier automatic used by the 5.8 AT Cabrio and Sedan.
