JW -

I didn't compose the pages for those Series (only the 55th-56th and, later, the 57th-58th), but since I've been editing errors in other years/series/models as they have turned up, I went ahead and made the correction that you requested for the 22nd Series Custom Vic (chassis 2233) for both 1948 and 1949.

I don't have much time for online/hobby pursuits, right now, but since I was already in there, I started auditing the wheelbase, displacement, and HP for all 22nd Series models.

As part of that work, I also changed the HP listed for the 327 motor in 22nd Series models (chassis 2202-22-32) from 150 to 145. SC Vol. 21, No. 19 shows 145HP for 22nd Series and SC Vol. 23, No. 5 shows 150HP for 23rd. While SC Vol. 22, No. 1 provides a correction for engine torque in 22nd Super Eights, there's no mention of any error in the corresponding HP.
