Evil I've had a few cars in the past that had 255's. The easiest way to tell was they usually have an aluminum intake. But the engine is so greasy it's hard to tell. I'll find out for sure once I yank it out.
Zwack88 I bought that camper for $550(with rebuilt engine in it ) and gutted it and have been pulling my 20 Foot car trailer with it. I used it to haul the LTD home. Kind of fitting I suppose, it hauled the LTD and now will make the LTD haul! I just bought a 89 E350 cargo van to replace the camper so the swap can begin. Atleast once it warms up some.
get me the VIN and i will tell you but, acording to my '81 ford librery, there was no 255 option. even the base meteor had the 302. get me the VIN and i will tell ya.

it has the 1976 holly, eh? cant remember if its a 1VV...if it is, that means its a 255. also, does it have a single accessory belt? i forgot that the base LTD had the 4.2L and the mercury meteor had the standard 5.0L.

Not a Holley, It has a stock 1976 Ford Motorcraft 2150 2V. I just don't know if someone just swapped the carb onto the 255 or the 255 crapped out and they swapped in a 302. I guess I'll find out when I yank it out.

Just look at the intake. The 255 intake looks like there is an air gap in it. Also, the casting number is unique.
