I need to know the proper measurements for the rochester carb with tag number 1376-5990A1. If anyone has them or a link to a manual on how to rebuild I would appreicate it.

There is no way to find that carb tag number except to look through all the OEM service manuals or parts lookup sites.
Suppose you could just tell us the Make, model, year, manufacturer and save us a lot of trouble? Maybe even some model and serial numbers.

Its on a 1982 Bayliner cuddy with a mercruiser 470.The tag states 1376-5990A1 and the number on the side of the carb is 17067132. I can take a pic of the carb and post it if need be. Im having alot of trouble finding anything out about this carb. I dont know if its just me or its the carb itself.

First of all, check your 17067132 number. The 6 should be a 5.
here is the specs on that carb. Found in the OEM service manual.

Note 2 tells me to measure from the parting line to the gasket, my float sits on the gasket, this is pretty off?
