rochester 2jet - any carb experts?

[ChevDog1]

Ill try fattening up the idle first and see if that helps. If not, I'll see if i can find the checkball leftover from my rebuild and try adding it. When I rebuilt the carb (about 8 months ago!) I checked with Mike & Mikes carbs, and he was pretty sure that I didn't need one based on my description. I also used his video to determine if I needed one, and based on that it didn't. I have also read that if your 2GV has a fuel transfer slot in the side of the pump well, it is designed to not have a checkball at the bottom of the well. Mine has a transfer slot.

It is getting a really good shot at the squirters, and I'm guessing it wouldn't if it were pushing fuel back into the bowl.

Can my float level affect my carb in this way? I had to make an educated guess when I set it up, as this carb was never offered on my engine. Would it help to lower or raise the float?
