    Have the 250 in the Fleetline. How many degrees (tail down or nose nose down) should the engine sit? Thanks.

    People usually try for level across the carb, but in real life driving the carb is seldom level. Within 2 degrees or so should be OK.

    I had read that you should set the tail down by 2 degrees.
