I think the measurement is 35mm off the top of my head, I'll get back to you if that is incorrect.

Its measured from the mounting surface of the carby lid, to the bottom of the float, whilst you are holding the float/lid vertically, so the float cannont put pressure on the spring in the needle.

It does sound like you might have a blocked pressure relief valve, pain in the ass. Does it go off the clock whilst idling hot, or just cold, or just high revs?
