Exclamation Adjusting the float level on a holley.

ok, I did search, I really did, but couldn't find anything!!! Can someone direct me to a article that explains how to set the float level on a holley 465. Or even explain it here.
Thanks in advance,
heb.

you should have two big flat head screws on the top of the carb. turn them out and then adjust the nut. turn it out to raise the float level and vice versa.

Also, remove the float bowl plugs. On level ground, you adjust till fuel just dribbles out of the holes.
