Sluggish '63 continued

[Doug J <63sprtfury@xxxxxxxxx>]

Posted earlier on my '63 wanting to stumble from a stop, and poor idle.  Replaced vacuum hoses, checked for leaks ect.  Advanced the timing from 5 to 8 degrees.  That helped the idle alot, but it still stumbles from a stop, and a bit at say 3/4 acceleration.  Takes off nice if you go full throttle and it drops a gear, or if you are at a higher RPM.  Also, it idles quite fast, (1500 RPM) for a time when you have had some revs on it.  Found out that pulling the vacuum hose off the distributor vac advance.  It's a Chrysler electronic system, with very few miles, although the distributor did lay in a box for 20 years or so.  
383 with an Edelbrock 4 bbl.
Any thoughts ?
