You have a leak for sure somewhere. The idle should rise when the choke is closed for warm up and when the engine is warm the choke will open to let it idle. If the choke is closed when the engine is hot the engine should die. I can say...more than likely you have a vacuum leak. Check for vacuum leaks with some carb cleaner by spraying around the base of the carb and on the manifolds....any rise or fall in rpm and that's where your leak is. Edelbrocks have a large port hole for P/B setups....did you put the screw in plug in? Your probably running PCV...plug that off to and see if that helps anything.
