Clois,

My setup is similar to yours. I installed a new Demon 750 carb and it was so rich initially that I'd nearly pass out. They come from the factory with a 5 inch power valve. My cam was pulling only about 4 inches of vacuum. I swapped out the 5.0 pv for a 3.5 and my rich idle problem immediately went away.
