Default Weber guys, I need a measurement.

Alright, here is what I have discovered about my set up. I have 2 Italian carbs and 2 not Italian. The main jets screw further down in the carb bodies in the Italian carbs buy 1.5 mm. If the floats are set to factory specs, (5.5mm above the surface and the tang 24.2 down in the bowl) and if you lay a flat edge across the two main jets and measure down to the top of the float what is that number? There should be a hole in the top plate right over the float if you don't want to disassemble the carb.

Lets say the number is 13.5 mm on 2 of mine and 15mm on the other two. My floats are set to factory specs. Would I need to raise or lower the float setting on 2 carbs so the float(fuel level in the bowl) is in the same location relative to the e tubes on all four carbs? I realize that measurement is not going to be real easy to get but i really need to sort this out.

Thanks in advance to the poor soul that gives me this number!
