nNE THING the buyer of quality car O pays for and should get is quietness
 ride in the Single Six will convince anyone that this subject has been given careful atten- ton by our engineers. Because the Packard Motor Car company has spent great deal of money. not only to make new Packard Single Six cars quiet but to keep them quiet over a period of years.
 THE L-HEAD TYPE OF MOTOR adopted in preference to the overhead princi- pally because it has been impossible to keep the overhead valve motor quiet. Verify this by comparing the Single Six quietness with any overhead valve motor type. Overhead rocker arms poorly fabricated, long push rods and overhead cam drives all noise making complications. The Single-Six combines L. head quietness with overhead valve economy. THE FRoNT-END CHAIN is manifestly quieter than gears which inevitably hum some what. Chain engineers have pronounced the Single Six chain the best designed front-end chain yet produced It approaches the ideal equal sided triangle, which gives the most pos. sible bearing on each of the three sprockets The chain is less than thirty inches In length, and the sprockets are small enough to reduce the speed of the chain but large enough to grip it effectively. With easy adjustment and without sag or whip. this chain will surely be a con- tinuous feature of quietness
 THE GAM SHAFT HAS FOUR GOOD SIZED BEARINGS preventing cam bearing slap The cams are of special design. by which the play between the cam and the roller is taken up so gradually that noise is pro- duced.
 VALVE FINGERS Cor ROckERs). This is perhaps the most distinctive feature of quiet ness the Single Six. Where the valve tap pet has its own roller and works directly upon the cam. there is considerable side thrust the tappet. This side thrust on the tappet shock and at point where lubri- cation is difficult; hence the tendency toward rapid With the valve fingers, all side thrust comes the shaft of the finger which Is fabricated by pressure from the main oil circulating system. Wear of these parts will be reduced to a minimum This also makes it possible to tighten the valve tappets and to magnify the action, all of which aid the quietness.
 VALVES AND SPRINGS. The Packard SingleSix is equipped with double valve springs which found during the to be remarkably effective means of maintain ing valve efficiency. This is true because the double spring brings the valve squarely to it's seat rather than cooked up on one side as with eliminated and valve guide wear reduced to a minimum.
