I checked the '52 Canadian operator's manual and found the horsepower is rated as 92 - same as US.

Mark - my block has the same casting number as yours, but my head has a different casting number. Also, on my head there is a large number 2 (presumably instead of 7 or 9) cast not below the GM symbol but nearby on top of the head under the valve cover.
