Buc – with the added lower groove in the carb float pin, does your cork float extend from the new lower groove all the way to the upper retainer clip groove?  Or what is the total height of your float?   I’m getting ready to test fire my Sea King project and when I installed a new float I made it the same height as the old one and I’m wondering if the new float should have been taller, shorter or the same height as the old one.
