    The 1956’s used a different bolt pattern to mount the starter to the bracket itself, 6v vs 12v. So if you try to use a ’56 bracket, you will not be able to install a 12v starter to the bracket without modifications. I am working on a mod to allow the use 12v starter on a ’56 6v bracket…Someday I will get that project back in the que…lol
