The full pressure '53 235/Powerglide engine will work with a 216 bellhousing and a T5. I have that setup in my '50. The only odd thing is that the '53 crankshaft was not drilled for the stock pilot bearing. You will need to either have it drilled to the stock size, or locate a pilot bearing which fits the smaller hole in the '53 crankshaft. Dorman actually makes one for this application. Hopefully someone in here can provide you with the part number.
