The 1956 did come with Rochesters, however Carter built 6 sets (3 sets M/T, 3 sets A/T) of prototype dual quad WCFB's for Pontiac for 1957. Unfortunately (opinion), Pontiac opted for the 3 Rochester two-barrels. The dual WCFB's would have been just awesome; and later dual AFB's would have been even more-so. But then they called those Super Duty.

Here is a link to a picture of the 1956 with Rochesters: http://www.thecarburetorshop.com/195...gerside2x4.jpg
