From diagrams:
1956 front 60.52"
1954 front 57.03"
60.52-57.03 = 3.49"
Divided by 2 = 1.745"
The edge of the tire is 1 3/4" closer to the fender.
Appearance wise it is a little noticeable.
Turn steering wheel to maximum left (as an example).
Now hit a pot hole where the front axle goes up.
The problem can be worse if you are running wider modern tires.

"I found there was nothing to gain beyond 400 CFM."
