Hello,
Unfortunately we buy the packing glands with the packing already installed. However you may want to contact your local dealer to see if they have re-packed a C30 inboard before. If you are doing it yourself you can always remove the packing cord and then take to the local marine store and they can get you the correct size, obviously this job can only be done when the boat is out of the water so you would have plenty of time to get the correct size packing from your local marine store. Hope this helps and if you have any questions you can email me direct.
Thank you,
Kevin Lamont

On our 2017 CW30S with the D6 the packing size is 3/8”. I replaced it a few years ago with the fat impregnated flax type. Next time I would go with the Teflon infused style. The material I used is messy.
