I'd suggest increasing the accelerator pump shot by changing what hole the linkage goes to on the pump arm. I think moving it to a hole closer to the pump (making a shorter pump arm) will give you a bigger shot.

Go to edelbrock.com and watch all the videos they have on the carburetor installation. They detail all kinds of pertinent information including hesitation and stumbling. The key to getting a good carb tune, is having EVERYTHING else working properly. Timing, fuel, and spark need to be spot on, then you'll get the carb to tune great.
