This is the engine that has stock car timers doing a "double take" at their stop watches wherever experts gather to compare the abilities of the 1955 cars. For example, in the recent NASCAR stock car competition at Daytona Beach, Florida, Chevrolet literally ran away from every other car in its class and a raft of others besides. In the one-mile straightaway run for low priced cars, the first two places and six of the first ten went to Chev- rolets. And in acceleration runs from a standing start against all comers, the Motoramic Chevrolet beat all other low-priced cars and every high-priced car except one! What's behind this blazing perform ance? A compact honey of a V8 that only the world's leading producer of valve-in-head engines can build. Chev rolet's new "Turbo-Fire V8". It puts a new kind of fun in your driving life. You're in charge of 162 high-spirited horsepower or if you're looking for even more excitement, the new "Super Turbo-Fire V8" (optional at extra cost) pute 180 h.p. under your toe! Pick the one you'd rather have fun with, then come in and get behind the wheel. You'll see why the Motoramic Chevrolet is showing its heels to every one else on the road!
