I am kinda new at the interchanging of parts for the y blocks. I was wandering if the parts from the 272 - 312 can fit the 256, i.e. valve covers, headers, distributors, ect.



I am also wanting to add the power assist steering to my Merc, but I can't find the unit that came with the model year. Can someone tell me if a 1960 Thunderbird steering unit will fit without much modification. I want to keep the original look.



Thanks for the help.
