14mm with the float resting against the needle but not pushing the little pin in.

More critical is getting them all the same as you can raise and lower the float height slightly to enrichen or lean off the rev range.

How does the float height affect the mixture?

It affects how much fuel is squirted up past the needle.

Ill take my carbs off again and measure it. whats the best way to measure the height? With the carbs upside down or sideways?

This looks like a clever way to check actual fuel level in each carb.
