Hey everyone, I just pickup up a solid 54 Mercury Monterey.

Looking at the motor I thought the 54 y blocks came with only 2 barrel carb setups but this one has a 4 barrel tea pot carb. My friend has a 54 ford but only 2 barrel.

I know the merc had a 256 vs 239 in 54 but did the carb and intake setups change also ? Or did someone install a 56-later intake ?
