Thirteen Holley Carburetor Co. catalog sheets for Mercury carburetors from 1956 to 1960, arranged roughly by date. They cover the 1956 Model 4000 four-barrel on the 292 cubic inch V8, the twin-carburetor Maximum Duty Kits of 1956 and 1957, the 4150-C on the 1957 312, the 4150-C, 4160-C and 2300-C on the 1958–1960 383 and the 312 Medalist, and the 1908-FC single-barrel on the 1960 Comet six. Most sheets carry application data, a carburetor specification table, an exploded view and an indexed parts list. Two forms appear in two issues (M-214 and M-218). Some sheets refer to Lincoln sheet L-148 for the 430 Super Mercury engine.
