    I understand the 54 256 had the same compatibility problems as the early 239.

    I hope you understand that the 54 239 (block EBU) was a one year engine. Internals, like the cam, are different from all other YBlocks. Oil pump drive is different, water pump, fuel pump, etc. Even intakes from later engines are not compatible. If want a YBlock, get a later 239 (EBV) ) or a...

    ‘56 trunk key lock question

    Your best bet is to take the lock to a locksmith and have him replace it. He should be able to reset the new lock to your old key if it matches the ignition.

    Rack and pinion?

    There were some suppliers that offered retrofit racks. Sorry, I don't have the info on them. One problem that people noted about them that it increased the turning radius. I haven't seen any info about these for the last few years.
