I just wondered if anyone on this site would know if the kickdown rod that connects to the belllcrank on a 56 Victoria with a 4 barreli is different shape and or lenght depending on if you have an air cooled or water cooled Fordomatic. A friend is putting together a 56 Victoria and I gave him an extra rod that I had that was the same as the one on my Victoria. He called me back and said the rod was not right for his car , probably because my car is air cooled and  his is water cooled. I am thinking that the water cooled trans was a late year change in 1956 and the kickdown rod  he needs,might be more common on the 1957 cars. By the way, we have both discovered that the 56 bellcrank is not a perfect fit on the 1957 manifold. We both added washers to shim the bellcrank up a little higher to fit the 1957 manifold.
