About 1 1/2 turns is good. Should be a little rich but that makes for easy  
starting the first time.
 
With the choke on you should have a little pool. If you have one with the  
nozzles up the float level is too high.

was  hoping someone could help me out with this one- should be  simple...

when setting up a set of SU's for baseline running- I've  pulled the domes
and set the knobs underneath so the top of the  "enrichening valve" or
whatever it's called is level at the inside of the  carb- for baseline, do I
back off on each one 2 1/2 turns? I know I have to  form a "pool" of gas on
top of it...believe I have the floats set about  right now, didn't seem to
have a simple on or off spot, had to blow thru  the caps and see where the
floats were  when the airflow shut off as I  lifted them up.  not where I'd
expect them to be shutting off by  eyeballing it and  measurements.

Thanks-
