As an aside, I have always thought that the 272 was available in the 56 Custom. I had one with a 6 cyl but also had one with a 272. Though I guess someone could have swapped it out.
You're correct.

The 1955 272 was available as either a 2V 162HP - SGL EXH or, 4V 182HP - DUAL EXH.

The 1956 272 was only available as a 2V SGL EXH.

The 1956 FAIRLANE had the 223 as the basic engine and the 292 as optional power (312 mid-model year intro). The 272 was not available on the FAIRLANE.
