Yes the manifold will work on '56 272/292 heads. There isn't any specific 272" head, they are the same. Although your '56 heads have smaller ports it will fit.
It will not fit earlier heads like Matt stated. Although they will pysically bolt up the 239/256" heads, they will not seal properly.

I thought/ hoped they would fit but figured I need to double check with the people who know. Once again you guys have come through. Thanks

BFOOTER,
I was just looking at the manifold/carbs setup the you gave the ebay number for. I didn't read the whole ad earlier. I just wanted to warn you that the price may go high I wanted to warn you that although the manifold is as stated, the carb are NOT Strombergs as stated but Ford/Holley 94's. Stromberg never made a Model 94 carb.
Nothing wrong with Ford 94's, but Stromberg 97's are much more rare and/or desirable by Hot Rodders and bring a much higher price.
Just didn't want you paying for something that's not there.

Appreciate the additional follow up. I have prepared my self for a high price and also noticed the carbs are Holley's. I would love Strombergs but have also realized they are a LOT more expensive. Thanks again. Bing
