Padgett,
three thoughts..........

1) Why 8 deg? I thought that the spec was 13.

2) I know that you remember all that has happened, but I forget. What happens 
when you set the idle speed, mix and balance when it's in drive?

3) I know that this is off the wall, but have you considered that some 
engines require a carb made for an auto trans? Maybe you should try those. Best bet 
would be to borrow some carbs from an identical engine. Not sure just what the 
differences are...trying to research that. Maybe it has to do with the amount 
of exposure the off-idle slot has at idle. Anyone know?

Regards,
