It must have been the little-known twin-turbo, fuel-injected, double
overhead-cam conversion planned for the "new" 245 Commander in-line six
being prepared for 1949 Commanders. That would be the R22 engine (two
turbos, two cams). Also planned was a single-turbo model, the R12, and
a non-turbo model, the R02. (Not to be confused with the later R2.)

The whole project was scrapped when it was determined that
high-technology sixes wouldn't "do" in the fifties marketplace, that
OHV V-8s would be required to stay competitive. So the V-8 was
developed instead. This was recorded as Studebaker's last good, major
marketing decision prior to the 1959 Lark.

(However, all was not lost, because some of the technology was later
used when converting the Champion Six to OHV for the 1961 Lark.)
