IN THE NATIONAL CLASS E MILE RUN during the USAC Trials last Summer
at March Air Force Base, Mickey Thompson, America's foremost driver, broke the
old record by over twenty miles per hour! That same day—driving four different
cars—he set a total of 14 new records. All four engines in the speed runs were
lubricated with Valvoline . . . the only motor oil with miracle CHEMALOY. As
Mickey Thompson reported: “. . . engines performed beautifully with condition
perfect on completion of runs. Another great tribute to Valvoline Motor Oil."
Valvoline with miracle Chemaloy helps keep engines clean, resist wear and deliver
top power. Ask for it at service stations, garages, new car dealers and speed shops.

The Mallory Double-Life Distributor will give
outstanding performance and perfect engine
timing at all speeds without any point float.
The Mallory Double-Life Distributor uses a 4-
lobe cam with 2 breaker points for 8-cylinder
operation and a 3-lobe cam with 2 breaker
points for 6-cylinder operation. At 6000 en-
gine RPM on an 8-cylinder distributor, the
breaker points open and close only 12,000
times per minute (4 X 3000 distributor RPM);
therefore no point float, no eccentric timing
and no weak coil output. For extra insurance,
all Double-Life Distributors have Mallory
STABILIZED Breaker Points which don’t bounce
at high RPM’s.
