high speed needle 3 turns out.
metering needle (bottom end needle) flush with ball link body.
mixture control valve (mid speed needle) 1 turn in from flush of the carburetor body.

these are right from the manual.

v-spec's have a nice tight pinch as I recall.
grab a heatgun and use it on low to heat the sides (not the heatsink head) gently untill you get about 150F or so at the head - makes it MUCH more easy to turn over and relieves lot of stree off the conrod untill the motor is fully broken in.
