SeaEagles Edelbrock 1406 Rebuild Kit compatible 1400‑series 4‑barrel — full gasket, floats & accelerator pump

SeaEagles rebuild kit supplies a full set of replacement gaskets, floats, pump parts and hardware to restore Edelbrock 1400‑series and compatible 4‑barrel carburetors to reliable operation.

This complete kit is engineered for service and restoration of Edelbrock Performer and compatible Carter AFB style square‑bore carburetors (models like 1400, 1405, 1406, 1407, 1411 and the commonly paired 1477 kit). It gathers the common wear items—gaskets, accelerator pump, floats and small parts—so you can refresh an aging carburetor without sourcing components individually. The parts are alcohol‑resistant where appropriate and sized to match the original equipment form and function, helping preserve throttle response and fuel sealing without altering carburetor geometry.

What parts are included in the rebuild kit and why do they matter?

The kit contains the typical consumables that fail first: base and center gaskets, bowl cover gasket, two floats, an accelerator pump and the accompanying small parts and seals. Replacing these items addresses leaks, flooding, poor idling and sluggish throttle return, the most common symptoms of a tired carburetor. All pieces are selected to fit square‑bore Edelbrock and Carter AFB style 4‑bbl carburetors listed in the compatibility notes.

• Base gasket and center body gaskets for proper sealing between carburetor sections
• Bowl cover gasket and float assembly to control fuel level and prevent leaks
• Two floats (1469 style) matched for buoyancy and fuel compatibility
• 1470 accelerator pump and related seals to restore crisp throttle response
• Assorted screws, O‑rings and metering block seals to replace worn hardware

How do I know this kit fits my Edelbrock or Carter AFB carburetor?

The kit is intended for square‑bore Edelbrock 1400‑series carburetors and many common Carter AFB 4‑barrel models. Fit is determined by body type and bolt pattern rather than vehicle make, so visual verification of the base shape and number stamps is recommended before purchase. If your carburetor shares the square bore design and has the same bowl and pump layout as classic Performer/AFB units, this kit will cover most service parts.

• Compatible with Edelbrock models: 1400, 1403, 1404, 1405, 1406, 1407, 1409, 1411, 1477
• Also fits many Carter AFB and similar 4‑barrel carburetors used in automotive and marine applications
• Check float bowl shape, mounting holes and accelerator pump location to confirm fit

Will these replacement parts improve drivability and performance?

Replacing worn gaskets, floats and the accelerator pump typically restores consistent fuel metering and prevents leaks, which improves idle stability, acceleration response and overall drivability. The kit doesn’t change jetting or calibration; it returns the carburetor to proper sealing and mechanical function so your existing tuning can perform as intended. For performance changes, specific jets or calibration parts would be required in addition to this service kit.

• Stops vacuum or fuel leaks that can cause rough idle or hesitation
• Restores correct float height to prevent flooding or lean conditions
• Replaces hardened pump parts to recover quick throttle response

How difficult is the rebuild and what tools are needed?

Typical rebuilds are moderate in difficulty for anyone comfortable with basic mechanical work. Removal, disassembly, cleaning and reassembly require standard hand tools, carb cleaner and a clean workspace. If you’re unsure, a professional carburetor shop can install the kit and verify float heights and pump timing for optimal results.

• Common tools: screwdrivers, ratchet set, needle‑nose pliers and torque wrench
• Consumables: carburetor cleaner, compressed air, lint‑free rags and gasket sealant if specified
• Optional: float level gauge and small picks for seal installation

This SeaEagles rebuild kit is aimed at classic car owners, DIY mechanics, restoration shops and marine technicians who work with Edelbrock Performer and Carter AFB square‑bore 4‑barrel carburetors. It suits anyone needing a comprehensive set of service parts to stop leaks, restore fuel control and keep period carburetors operating reliably without aftermarket jet changes. For full performance tuning or racing modifications, pair this kit with calibration parts and professional setup.
