I have a sweet running 312 from a merc, and my 55 Victoria has no drivetrain.
The Ford's mounts are not in the same places as the Mercs and i'm guessing the 56 Merc-O-Matic is longer than the orig Ford-O-Matic
Is there a mounting kit to accommodate this? Or do I just use diff mounts or shorten the driveshaft or give up and get a 55 Ford drivetrain?
Thanks in advance

There is no difference in the motor mount location no matter if it's a 312, 292, or 272.. As far as the transmission they should be the same as well unless it's from Thunderbirds from 1957 I believe.

The Merc trans have a longer tail shaft so there will have to be some modifications to the trans mount but should not be that hard.
