Default caburation issues

finished swapping out my v6 to a carburated v8. 305 ci 700r4 trans good running conditon before we pulled it out , (All RELATED MPFI parts removed) Brand New parts... edelbrock intake, distributor, mech fuel pump n rod, rebuilt edelbrock carb (600)cfm.. anything important was replaced... ANYWAY.. i had it running for 3days now, first 2 were aswome.. it ideld smooth but now it will die almost immediatley when put into drive or reverse, i have all vacum lines hooked correctly- Pcv- dist vacum advance- brake buster-etc . i reset the timing twice #1 cylinder (correctly), changed the fuel filter, adjusted the fast idel and needel seats. double checkd spark wires placment. WD-40 for vacum leaks. I have to crank up the elecric choke, and fast idle to keep her running in drive- high rpms super rich- DOES ANYONE HAVE A GOOD IDEA WHAT IS WRONG??? SOMEBODY HELP!!

UPDATE... changed plugs- fine- changed gasket between carb and intake-will stay running in reverse n drive- but dies when you excellerate.

You already put this same question in another place. One is all you need.
