Re: [FWDLK] Anybody parting out a 55 or a 56 Windsor, or a 56 Dodge w/the 270 Poly engine?

[Jan & Roger van Hoy <vanhilla@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

'56 Plymouth Savoy 2 barrel V-8's supposedly only came with the 270 cid poly 
carryover from '55 Dodge.  The Savoys and Plazas with 4 barrel and station 
wagons came with the 277, which was the new style poly that later was bored 
out to 301 and 318.  The Belvedere V-8's came with only the 277.

So are we all on the same page?  The 270's can be identified by the scallops 
on the bottom of the valve covers, and by the raised intake and separate 
valley pan.
