My sec coil form is 3.255 and over the wire is 3.308, winding length is
22". One other note the mounting plate for the "toroid" is now set as
the top; it could be inverted and set as the bottom, should it be on C/L
of the toroid?

Yes, there is a correct height.  It depends on the dia. of your sec
coil.
Please advise on your sec coil dia and then I can advise you as to best
height.

Set the toroid at 1.5 x toroid minor dia.  This is the height as
measured
from the last turn to the bottom of the toroid.  A piece of PVC
waterpipe
makes a good spacer.
