Question carb tuning questions

i need some help getting my carb tuned right. 351 W with a holley hp 650 sitting on a victor jr intake. it has always run overly rich. based on some advice from a friend i changed jetting and p.v. went from 68 to 66 primary jets. (haven't looked at the secondaries yet) and changed p.v. from 8.5 to 6.5.
I just bought a nice little A/F meter from F.A.S.T., got it hooked up here are the readings i get : at idle with idle screws turned out 3/4 turn A/F is about 13.6-13.8 as soon when i rev up the A/F goes to 10 (3-4 K rpm) when throttled down A/F jumps to 18 ( high as the gauge reads)for a second or two then back to 13.6. This is all in the garage no load test yet.

I clearly need to change something, any help would be appreciated.
i just noticed this should have gone under holley tuning!
