I mocked up the stamped bell with the 38 packard junior trans and found I will add a 1/2 inch adapter ( spacer really). It will locate off the original bore in mouth of the bell housing. I machined a sleeve for the packard snout to use a ford release bearing. Lots of room for the big clutch long style and the packard is a 10 spline 1.125 so someone mentioned Chevy disc and he is right I’m pretty sure. When I get it cleaned up and on the mill I’ll take some pictures and post like you ask.
Thanks again
Terry Lucas
