Per Dayclona's advice, I plugged the outer air bleed on each side with my finger. If the rpm rose or fell, which it did, I adjusted the idle mixture screw until there was no change when I plugged the hole.


If you are running the current Holley replacement carbs,the # 35 metering plate with your cam and the 540 cu in,I think you will still be lean at WOT.Buy a set of Ouick Fuel cast plates,$25 ea,take your time and eventually you'll get there. twocents
