Carb kit confusion

Included in the kits are 97, 97.5, 102, and 102.5.
There are no mods to the 650.
Which mixture screw do I use? There are 2 included, one is longer and more tapered than the other.
What would be the stock clip postion for the needle?
Thanks

Carbs are back together except for the bottoms, does anyone know how to adjust the floats with the carbs off?

Maybe I could rig a tube into the drain screw and do a wet level.

I used to use a thin piece of clear plastic tubing with the end taperd a bit. I just shove it in the drain hole and open the petcock.I found a thread gauge I had laying around and used it to measure float height using the shoulder of the carbs. 3 were at about 25mm and one was at 22mm. I adjusted the one to 25mm and hope it works. Although this seems kinda high by looking at it. I'm wondering if 25 might starve the carbs.

Perhaps a trip to the hardware store might help.
