I also have a '53 and when I replaced my wheel cylinders the inlets faced back, which seems normal to me. Thats the direction they faced when I took them off.
'52 Chevy 5 window, it ran when I parked it
'53 Chevy 5 window, running the streets with me.
'55 Massey-Ferguson, tearing up the dirt
'89 Harley FXSTS, suicide clutch
'92 Harley FLSTC, equal time with the '89
