Sit in the car and have someone adjust them until they just contact the springs, then add an extra turn. Start from there.

John Calvert told me to start at 1/4 turn preload in the top hole. He said the full range of adjustment is a 1/8" air gap to 1 full turn preload. For slick track conditions the lower hole will work better. Most of the Stock Eliminator cars that I have seen use the lower hole.
