It Is not an experiment) but a'nat- ural outgrowth of Chrysler's years of experience in designing and the building of high, grade automobile engines. Notable for the amount of power per cubic inch of piston displace-' ment which It developes, the DeSoto Six engine is also remarkable for bhe amount of power per pound ol engine weight developed. Not only does It develoy unusual power for its size and weight, but its design is, such that it can work contin- uosly at sustained speeds without losing power.

With a three inch bore and a stroke of four and one- eight inches It has an 8. A. E. rat- Ing of 21.6 horsepower, yet it actually developes 55 horsepower, more than two and a half times its 8. A.
