2100 float height

Hey boys, I'm finely getting around to rebuilding the motorcraft 2100 carb on my '72 f350 with a 360fe. I'm having a hard time finding the float height spec for this application. Part# on the carb is D2TF JB. I'm leaning towards just setting the float level and going with it, but I figured I'd ask incase one of you gents might have the correct spec for this carb.

When I did mine 50 rainy seasons back, the rebuild kit gave the float levels for various applications.

AI says 7/16 - 31/64" dry.

Fortification seems to say the same thing but the link won't open

That sounds about right. My kit only listed float adjustment for the car engines like 302 351w ect. I have the float height in my 1969 ford shop book, but those are different varients of the 2100.
