I could not agree more with the quote below, dont get used to it or take it for normal, fix it once and be done with it. What is your timing at idle and at 4K rpm's? Did you use a vacum gauge to adjust your mixture screws? These things are to simple not to get them perfect.

Are you running a carburetor with mechanical secondaries? If so, there is some driver technique required to get a smooth opening. Think of it as rolling in to full throttle rather than stomping on the gas pedal.
