I would like to keep the engine in my '54 Mercury looking original although it is a 292. I want to get rid of the teapot setup and go with a "B" manifold so I can use a modern Holly carb. Has anyone ever modified the teapot air cleaner to fit on the later Holly 4 bbl carb? I recall seeing a '56 at a show years ago and the owner told me he had the later carb but the engine had the original air cleaner on it. He had made it fit somehow. Thanks, Alan S. Freeman
