I thing the changed the way the converter connects to the transmission in 52 or 53 but I cant' remember. That one looks like a later type but I can't be certain. There ares still a fair amount of old Ford-O and Merc-O-Matics out there. They are essentially the same in the same year of manufacture but updates were done on the fly in those early years. Put it on the swap meet or flea-pay. Someone may have an interest.

If the EAB heads are any indication then it would be a later 52 or 53 engine. It looks to be set up for a Ford car in those years.
