X7810 X8810. POWER AT ROAD WHEELS. PHANTOM AND S.S. --------------------------- We give herewith a comparison of the power output at the road wheels obtained on the Phantom and S.S. cars. The Phantom curve is an average of many production chassis ; the S.S. curve is an average of eight power curves obtained during various tests on experimental S.S. chassis on the production Dynamometer.
