Pick up a holley tuning book. Set the total timing according to manufacturers recomendations. Set your idle speed. Check your initial, should be in the 12-14 range with that cam so long as it starts after a hot soak. Many are not curved right. Take the carb off and check the transfer slot. it should be exposed 'square' to maybe twice that (the book will explain it), if not, get it right and adjust the secondary butterflys by the amount of the front (ie 1 turn close on the front, one open on the back). Set your float height (up till it drips, down till it stops, that is max, do down from their for tuning). Set your idle mixture, adjust your accelorator pumps. Call me in the morning
