I'm not sure if the kit includes new floats as I couldn't get the picture of the kit to come up.

Floats are not included - as was the case for OE repair kits.

I also don't know if the '55 kit is the same one for the '56...

Not only are there different kits for 55 vs. 56, but for single 4GC vs. dual 4GC applications within each year.

I agree with what-

BlackBeerd said: There is no partial rebuild on a carb. Take it apart. Clean it. Put it back together.

And you will usually need a kit at least for the gaskets and float needle.

When the float is leaking, I've soldered them up.
