The Ford Barn

I am having a lot of difficulty seting the float. No matter what the carb overflows. I have removed the bowl with the carb on the car, turned on the fuel with my thumb pushing the needle into the seat and the fuel stops. I have checked the float for leaks and it checks ok. I believe that I am not setting it corectly. Does anyone have the correct measurement for float height on a Tillotson F-1B??? The book I am referencing is not very detailed when it comes to float setting.

Thanks in advance,
Angelo
