I've been driving it around town yesterday and today and the off idle bog from not having a TPS sensor was bugging me. So I cut and drilled a piece of angle iron and mounted a mid-80's sensor to the Holley carb/throttle body and used a small piece of cruise control chain to connect it. With minimal tuning of the accelerator pump shot it's running pretty good and 90% of the bog is gone. I still have a bit of work to do, but it's pretty good now. And of course the first time I wired it up it registered backwards so I had to reverse the power and ground wires.

Closed throttle


Wide open throttle.


Since I am not gaining the 1.5 points of compression with the 4bbl cam, I'm going to go install the adjustable cam sprocket I have and set it for a full 8º advance. Should help the low end and bring the power level down the band a bit. Might even pick up a few mpg's.
