duel carb setting question

Well engine is rebuilt with 9.7:1 compression and the offy duel manifold is installed. One of the carbs was leaking bad so I need to rebuild it tonight. My question is where do I start with the needle setting for each carb to get it running?

Never did dual carbs on a Fridge but the rule of thumb for this part of the country is to start one and a half turns out from all the way in!
