As you may know Lincoln was its own brand at one time, then picked up by Ford.
The 1953 Lincoln came with only one engine.
The V-8 Overhead value was a cast iron block. It was able to displace 317.5 cid and had a bore and store of 3.8″x3.5″. The compression ratio was: 8.0:1 and bushed out only 205 hps and that was breathing through a Holley 2140 4 barrel carb.
This a pic of a 1954 317 engine which is exactly the same as the '53
1953 Lincoln
Thanks for reading.
