I think my questions concerning this was a way back so I'll post again. Mine are installed and on the 56 Victoria. Oldmics parted with a 56 Ford NASCAR air filter and Ted answered a lot of questions. I used Carter WCFB's and a home bracket for the coil. Fuel and vacuum lines were pretty easy and the linkage was made from a kit used on FE 427's. At full throttle the back barrels on both carbs are a little short but for me its OK. Still just a cruiser.

I know it's not original but I think the "originals" shows I go to won't mind to much since the air filter covers most of the non-original parts and it is an over-the-counter part. Still battling a power steering leak which is next.
