Try wiggling the throttle shaft by hand to see if there's any play at all. The Rochester I had on a 216 manifold (235 engine) had that problem causing, I assume, a bad flat spot on acceleration. I switched to a Carter on the correct 235 manifold and it now runs great.
BTW, welcome to the board Kurt!
