it should do the opposite, thats kinda strange, are you using a constant vacuum port or a ported one, a ported one only has vacuum under throttle, that might be your answer.........also go over your plugs wires and firing order again, you might have two crossed or something, my friends 460 acted that way and i found that #7 and #8 were backwards.......
