The D-62 engines in the 1956 Dodge Coronet had a 2bbl manifold and a 2bbl Stromberg WW 3-144. That is what is in my truck. By the way, I was thinking about oil bath packing again while I was painting the air cleaner, and I remembered that once when I had to make a cleaner for an old mower the guy at the small engine place gave me a big piece of air cleaner foam element stock a bit over 2" thick. I cut two pieces from it and jammed them into the gizmo that holds the packing. Should work fine, and no bothering with oil.
