The level I use is the Moore and Wright ELM engineers' level. It has a resolution of .0035 inches per foot A description can be found here.
The Starett 98-8 or 98-12 are just fine for any machine setup. They are good to .005" per foot.
I should add that the only machines in my shop that are level are my metal lathes. That's for convenience of getting close to bed alignment before the 2 collar (or 'dogbone') test.
