X.7810 (print) X.8810 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.
