The manual that comes with the shocks explains it pretty good, also gives you baselines for the type of riding you are doing.

It also depends on which bike you have and the frame rake angle.

I'd run 1/4" taller in the front than the rear. What rear shock and linkage do you have and how much do you weigh?

Idk about the Gen2, but for a 170lb rider on the Gen1's on an LTR that would be too much in the main. prolly start around 45-50 in the main chamber and 200-220 in the evol.

genII's are pretty much the same but just have cosmetic differences (not 100%)

Yeah, they are the same. Just different lower friction seals. Fox recommends 38 main and 140 evol. The evol chamber really doesn't change much until 3.5" into the travel so just set your main pressure to the ride height and adjust your compression.
