Note: The 1955 265 V-8 engine did not have a block mounted canister or spin on oil filter. In that year an oil filter was installed as an option remotely. If you are installing a later model V-8 in your 1955 you will need to purchase the 1956-1957 bell housing bracket #341 as it is modified to clear the canister or spin on filter. You will also need to change your "Z" bar and replace the tab on the frame, the later model "Z" bar uses a larger diameter pivot stud and it is modified to work with the modified bell housing bracket.
