Which one?

Didn't it come with a manual?

I have the 5.5 carb on my Super Nitro Rally, whichis the same chasis/drivetrain as the MT. I used the stock needle settings.

However, I had a bunch of problems with the screws coming out on the carb. I wound up using a larger 3M allen headed screw cut down. The carb mount/carb is pretty soft, and the iron screws basically cut their own threads. Haven't had any problems since.
