You have the right to believe whatever you wish to believe. I did not imply that.

There is already a lot old documentation saying the kits used Holley 4000 carbs (LIST# 1268) which were unique for the kits. Never used by Ford for anything else.

We are talking MERC here. Separate DIV from FORD at that time.

The WCFB was assembled on a 56 MERC 260 setup. The H4000 was assembled later on the 56 MERC 260 setup. There are no racer mods entering the discussion other than then current factory sponsored racing team(s).

Sounds like your not willing to share your information saying otherwise whether it be documented in writing or not, would still be very interesting for at least me and Oldmics. Not trying to argue here. Just open to all info.

Sal,

You are already being argumentative. The info has been out for some time.

I do not wish to go around on this.

All I am trying to get across is that just having one piece of documentation does not give one the right to say that was how it only was and have a nice day.

Besides, I never heard the OP present either a question and/or statement. But see how a single response nailed it down to one person's interpretation?
