Quadrajet issue

Alan ,yeah I'll try to get some pics found needle lift clip in well for Mix controll solenoid. I'll measure but float looks pretty close to that measurement.Float not rubbing any where. Looks to me like they took alot of mismatched qjet parts and tried to make a carb out of it. There is some sort of valve in the bottom of the well where I'd say an MC solenoid once sat, seem to recall way back they made a qjet with some sort of secondary enrichment needle or valve in that area. Any way I'll try this weekend to post some pics and hopefully can resolve this. BTW this is a 1971 429 SCJ mustang, I'm lead to believe this is the only year they put a Qjet on this engine.
