This hemispheric combustion chamber, with larf e, well-cooled valves right in the dome, is the basic reason FirePower out performs all previous engines, even on non-premium fuel! Wh 'hether you plan to buy a Chrysler or not, we cordially invite you to drive this revolutionary Chrysler FirePower V-8 engine. Only FirePower performance can possibly tell you what it is like. We want you to have that experience. The FirePower engine is a basic new design so advanced it can meet rising performance needs for years to come. Today it delivers 180 horsepower, even on non-premium fuel, and when desirable with simple changes in manifolding, compression, and carburetion the horsepower can be raised to 250 ... or over 300, as in the experimental Chrysler K-310 car. Naturally, others will imitate this Chrysler achievement, at least in part. We honestly believe that the Fire Power engine will outperform any other car in America . . . and we invite you to learn the new standard in engine performance Chrysler has set by driving it yourself.
