They are talking about the 49 to 51 lincoln flathead that was used also in ford trucks f7 and F8.
The 52 ohv was either a 279 or a 317 and looks like a big Y block. Same deal lincoln cars and ford F7 f8 trucks starting in 1952.I had two big trucks with them . A 55 ford tandem t750 and a 61 ford F800.

Or did you mean the winning road race car was a 52 lincoln and they never raced the flathead lincoln?
