4 barrel
Morning guys , bought a 4 barrel intake and t pot carb carb # ecz 9510l list#1162 2
intake # ecz-9425-a . I am wondering if they will work with my original 55 272 distributor . I think if I have the intake off I'll put in a pcv in the valley pan |

Yes, the 1162-2 Holley 4000 and the ECZ-A intake are both correct for '56, and will work fine with the '55 Loadomatic distributor, like KULTULZ said.

Re: 4 barrel
Didn't the 55/56 4-bbl teapot carb have an additional vacuum hookup for the dual-diaphragm vacuum advance on the distributor??? The 272, 2-bbl only had a single vacuum diaphragm. Wouldn't you need to get a dual-vacuum setup for the distributor in order to synchronize the carb perfectly with the dizzy???

The inner diaphragm took the limited vacuum from the normal port on the front of the carb, about halfway up for the spark advance. The '56 carb will have the correct vacuum signal for the '55 distributor too. Sal |

You have vacuum wipers (SGL or DBL action fuel pump?) and MAN or PWR BRAKE? Quote:

Re: 4 barrel
maybe I should use a carb spacer with a fitting in it for the pcv line .. and leave the brass fitting in and use one of the lines for wipers and block the other, will that small steel line be enough to run wipers ( i hardly use them anyway)

So you have manual brakes (no booster)? Below is a kit for easy PCV CONV for your application - Quote:
