I wanted to change my load a matic dizzy to a 64 f-100 dizzy so i got one from napa. the dizzy says Motorcraft and the # is12127.It has a triangular shaft and the # on that isE2 AE-12131-ca.I hope this fits my 56 292 cause i just spent money at Bubbas Ignition and had Jim re curve it. thanks,Mike
 
Mike, yes it will fit your '56 292 but you should also change your carburetor to a '57 up due to the fact that your present carb was designed to use with a Load-o and the vacuum signal is incorrect for the vacuum advance.
 
I already have the ECZ-9425B INTAKE I'm trying to find a465 cfm holley with electric choke.I LIKE HOLLEYS! THANKS!

I think the 50's/60's 465cfm Holley carb's are List #1848, and the 1849's are 550cfm. I've seen the '57 ECZ 4bbl List #1273 410cfm Holley's on ebay for about 75 to 100 for a core/builder that's mostly complete. Since they are oem for the '57 T-Birds they can get pricey for a nice one. There are also Holley 600's w/ vacuum secondaries for less if you don't mind them having a little higher of a cfm rating. Something for a 60's/70's 289 or 302 could be a good fit too.

Very good carb info at this link...
