As far as I knew Canadians had Mercury trucks, not Fords then.

Try looking at the pinion placement on the rear end.  If the pinion is offset to one side, then the engine was most likely offset to the same side by the same amount of pinion offset.

54 Canadian Fords still were flatheads.

For an actual 54, it should have a Y-Block. You could have a 53 that was titled in 54 which is entirely possible.

I'm working on a 1954 F100 truck with the original flathead v8.
Should that motor be centered in the frame rails or offset to the drivers side?
I'm trying to find proof of either. Tech drawings or something.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
