i'd check to see if you have too much idle circuit in the secondaries. shove a clean rag in the secondary bores to see if the engine stalls.

Distributor has a silver and blue spring currently, it was running fine with that set up but I found out the transfers slots were not exposed so I set them at .025 and had a 2K idle. The symptoms started when I loosened the distributor to retard the initial timing from 16* to a number that would deliver an acceptable idle speed and carb settings.
I can get it below 1K with little or no transfer slot exposure (.025 is spec). Problem was flat power as the clutch engaged.
