Rob, I bought several spools of that nock-tying thread, as well as my release rope, from a lady who goes by redcharm over on ArcheryTalk.com... she's got a thread in the classifieds that usually stays up near the top. Very reasonable, too... I think it's a couple bucks or so for a spool; that's why I said use the stuff liberally.
I know from experience that my Bowtechs are going to tune pretty well at an almost level nock point. Most solocams are going to start somewhere around 1/8" above level... If you know so that you can start fairly close, you can make the final tuning adjustments with your rest. For instance, I started off with mine exactly level using a laser and levels (see link in how I do that:
