FORD is 354316-S EDIT - Notice NPD shows two different fittings under the same PN. One is 1956 and the other 1957. You have to know what you are looking for exactly as the vendor may have no idea or incorrect listing(s). Basic PN 17597 is a vacuum source for the wiper motor without a two stage fuel pump. The fitting is also described under BASIC 17597. All of this depends on the year (55-56-57) and what accessories were assembled on the vehicle (whether FORD or BIRD). Most info was deleted from cataloging. You would need period cataloging and most likely an ENGINE ASSEMBLY MANUAL to figure out each assembly detail. THIRTY BILLS?... for a Weatherhead fitting?!! Is brass the new gold? "FREE SAMPLE"

I found everything else I need from them. So far my total is just over $100 which will get me free shipping. If I spend as much time as I have so far searching for the parts, I should be able to find a good promo code too. ~DJ~ AKA "Bleach" 1956 Ford Fairlane Town Sedan 30K original miles

VIEW 9 shows going from a two port fitting for a three port (booster - wipers - dual adv dist canister) Much varies on how the engine was assembled OEM and what accessories the car came through with. Parts Catalog Illustrations are not exact copies of ENGINEERING DRAWINGS. They are a culmination of similar years/assemblies. They show just enough so that the PARTS DUDE can find his/her/it/mutant's way in the TEXT. ____________________________

Kultulz, do you have a better resolution copy of the installation diagram? If you're not able to post it, could PM it to me or I could PM you my email. ~DJ~ AKA "Bleach" 1956 Ford Fairlane Town Sedan 30K original miles

I stumbled across that one on GOOGLE. Maybe print it out it will be larger? Were you able to read VIEW 9? The fitting you are showing is for a 1957. ____________________________
