If the engine is original it may be possible to narrow it down to the month built. Also since they didn't make SM at Louisville the whole 1953 year. If the engine serial # happens to be later than used in Louisville tractors you can figure it was made at Farmall.

Found that is not the case 100% of the time though. If you post the engine serial # I may be able to tell what area the tractor serial # was. No promises.
