OH YEAH, I had to end up adjusting the drop using a set of calipers, measuring the depth of the bowl from the top of the bowl then measuring the float as it was hanging. I think I got some oddball float, because at the factory setting, it set on the bottom, either that or I didn't have the right carb for the specs I was using or something. 4 or 5 times over a period of about 3 months I had to take it apart just to find absolutely nothing in the bowl that I could figure would cause the "lets burn down the house" situation. Either way from now on, on a new (to me) carb I will use the actual measurements in the bowl as related to the actual bottom of the float hitting the bowl. Kind of late now that you are done though....But that was my experience.
This post just in from the carbking titled carb adjustments for older carbs, which may come in handy, since you are there right now.
