Torsion bar suspension, pioneered
on American cars in the luxury

models. Available in a broad se

and Deluxe models are powered
by a 240-horsepower y-8 of 352
cubic-Inch displacement with a
torque rating of 380 foot pounds at

displacement with a torque rating
of 350 foot pounds at 2,800 rpm.
Both V-8 engines have a 8.5 to
1 compression ratio, one of the
highest in the auto industry, and
this high compression ratio Is' a
basic factor for a 15-20 per cent
increase in fuel economy and
greater ability to deliver usable
horsepower In normal speed
ranges.
When teamed with the Improved
Ultramatic transmission, both ol
the V-8 engines endow in Clipper i

The 1956 Clipper Is capable of ac

Clipper V-8 engines are of the
largest displacement In the med

dictated by the fact that high
torque performance can be ob
tained only from an engine of
large- displacement. Fuel is fed
