Default Recommended oil level for Greddy TT w/ JWT pan spacer?

Just as the title says, what is the recommended oil level on the PITA to read dipstick with a Greddy TT Z w/ the JWT pan spacer? Right now it's at the Full line.

I've been told my car shoots out blue smoke when I let off after a WOT run. I personally can't see any smoke when I go WOT and let off. Wanted to double check the oil level to either see if it may be over-filled or if the problem lies elsewhere.

When measuring oil level, it should be in the same location as stock. With turbos, I am always sensitive to overfilling the crankcase, so I put the oil level between the L and the F....even when using a spacer. On an APS kit, I leave it on the L.

It's not uncommon to see a puff of smoke between shifts...as oil pressure is still sky high, but cylinder pressure is super low.
