He told me that at the Ford dealership where he worked for umpteen years, the way they adjusted the 427 engine with the high overlap 324 degree solid lifter cam with the single four barrel carb (my setup exactly) was this: Turn the idle screws all the way in, back them out an equal amount for both, say one and a half turns, keep the rubber cap on the manifold vacuum port. Start the car and get it to running temp. Then adjust the carb screws equally so that when you pull the rubber cap off the manifold port the idle neither increases nor decreases. It sounds too simple to work but, I have to say, I am a convert.
