10ft medium st croix avid surf guide spacing with microwave carp guides

Hey guys so I need some help. I am trying to find out the recommended guide spacing for a 10ft medium St Croix Avid surf built casting style with microwave carp guides. I do not have a reel that is the size the customer will be using so I cannot static test. If you can at least give me an idea of where to place the stripper guide I would greatly appreciate it

Did you meant spinning style? What is the model of reel to be used?

Ask Mudhole, they have the earlier guides figured out and published on their site. They may have these done also.

These measurements are from American Tackle for the microwave 50 carp/surf caster guide system.
