Whats are these carburetor things I keep hearing about?? 
Do they buret the car or something?
Seriously, I forgot what I did know about carbs ever since I got into EFI in the mid 90s, but if its a Holley one of those books you get on them from AE will go a LONG way.

Set your fuel pressure at 6 pounds.
Check your bowl levels so that fuel is just starting to run out when you pull the sight plugs.
Turn the adjuster screws all the way in and then back them out 1 to 1 1/2 turns and adjust from there.
