If you have been following my posts lately, my new 292 in the 55 Club really screams - even with an original 2 barrel and Fordomatic. I can burn rubber from a standstill on good RADIALS, dry pavement, starting in Lo or in Dr, and when I shift from Lo to Dr, I get a small bark. The torque is awesome!

I have an Edelbrock 553 I would like to install. Have an extra 56 passenger car bellcrank, an unpopened Offenhauser 3 deuce linkage setup (#6271), and of course my original working linkage that operates my current Fordo and stromberg style 2 barrel. What options do I have here, and how much fabbing up is this going to take? Anyone out there running this combo right now? Maybe you could send me a couple of photos to danaxjessup@yahoo.com ?

You should have seen the look on my Father-in-Law's face when I took him for a ride this afternoon!!!!! Great stuff! He enjoyed it though - he likes the car alot, and of course, that Y block puts the "thump" in the 55.
