Possibly. For that year the "Jetaway" hydramatic was introduced and it is different from the earlier models... Enough so that your manual will be of little help.
Not all 56's were equipped with the newer hydramatics so the best way to tell if I remember right is whether or not you have a "Park" position on the column. If not it would read NDSLR (Neutral, Drive, Super, Low, Reverse).
This link is a manual that covers 46-55: http://www.pontiacsafari.com/L1Garag...ic_1946-55.pdf
Hope that helps.
