Generally not without some modification somewhere. At a Tbird show I saw such a set up on an early Bird and asked the guy what he did to make everything fit. He said he milled the intake, like Miker mentioned. Florida_Phil (10/29/2018)
Does anyone know if a 3/2 setup with fit under the hood of a 1955 Thunderbird?

Phil, years ago I had on Offy manifold on my 55 bird. IIRC, I had to cut the rear element down about a 1/4 inch for hood clearance. I was using a little louvered air cleaner, but probably the same element size as the picture K posted. Ford 94 carbs. I could have milled the rear flange down, but I got away with the cheap fix.

If You go further into His Information He builds various multi-Carb Setups and then sells them. I think its a "Hobby" for Him. He has sold some very nice Setups. All seem to be $1500.00 USD delivered anywhere in N. America. I have seen His Items on Ebay once in awhile. I don't know where He finds the Various Intakes for these multi Carb Installations. Nice workmanship on all of them.

P. S: It's the bracket at the very bottom of the LAST photo posted. JLB Check out Ebay Item # 263961320872. I think that is for Automatic Transmission. Also a NOS One 222321995464.

Folks, I know that this is OLD; but, it was the only reference I could find for my question: I've a ECZ-B manifold on the engine in my '55 Crown and can't find the throttle bellcrank part that mounts to the manifold.
Can anyone point me to drawings, part numbers, suppliers, etc., for me to obtain one. It's the angular-looking two-hole bracket that bolts toward the rear driver's side on top of the intake manifold. It shows in the first photo in this post.
Thanks, JLB

Alright fellas I ripped through all of my stash and found all of this. What parts do I need? There are two different styles of firewall/throttke linkage, which is correct?

Ted, I think the only reason why I was worried about not using the 553 is because of the rear bellcrank mount for the early 2v style. Now that it has been clarified that I can use the later style fir 4v and just alter the shafts..well I guess that means I can run the 573 and no issues I suppose
