Awesome, Thank you.

 

@harleymsn I noticed you said it was a 272 and not a 239. I have a 1955 with a 272 and was told that it was original but most sites say that it only came with a 239 in 55. Do you know this to be real with a 272?

 

Yea, that was a mistake on my part, that should have been a 239, I must have looked at the 1956 chart when I did that.
