Default How do you set idle, tps?

88 2.8 5spd recent engine rebuild. How do you reset the TPS and idle speed? I installed a mild cam from ARI engines which has alittle more lift than stock and idles at about 15 in. of vac but smooth. The problem I'm having is right after you decelerate and come to a stop, the engine's idle drops really low almost to the point of dieingbut comes back to normal after several seconds. I'm thinking maybe readjusting the TPS/Idle to compensate maybe? I've got it idling at 850 rpm and Tps at .59v. What is the proper way to set it? Disconnect IAC? with acssy on? Thanks in advance

Thanks Pete, will my base timing be affected by resetting the IAC and TPS? Should I recheck it after the adjustment.
