Can anyone tell me what the factory setting is on a scf 050 damper? I've read about a pencil diameter as a start but the screw on mine would not be long enough. I would like to know where the damper should be as a starting point, I need to install my vent which is on order but would like to have some idea where to start.

Yes a pencil diameter is a great starting point, worked perfect on our St Croix's.
Try buying a longer screw if you think that's needed.
Note there is a small set screw on shaft that should be lossened before moving flapper valve.

The screw that is in there would contact the damper plate when it is horizontal, really doesn't do much good.
