The ad you showed threw me also as it says 1952-53 and 56. I see where a small case may have been used in some 56 MERC's. Let's just hope the kit it is quality.
!!! HOT NEWS FLASH !!!

XXX - The actual mid-size case FM (MERC-O-MATIC in this instance) was introduced during the 1954 model run.

!!! 2ND HOT NEWS FLASH !!!

Disregard above info about 1954 MERC MID-CASE SIZE INTRO.

1955 - 1957 MERC-O-MATIC - 1955 1957 LINC TURBO-DRIVE SINGLE RANGE.

I must be hallucinating again ...
