I ran the engine at various RPM in the garage while working on this and getting to operating temps. This was likely 25-30 minutes as I was doing a few other things, looking at vacuum (dropped about 8-10" due to idle speed)” Quote
Your initial post said you had about 20” of vacuum at idle. Does this mean you now only have 10” vacuum at idle? That is way low. Barring a vacuum leak somewhere, such low vacuum indicates possible valve issues as discussed in other posts

Sorry for the mistake, I meant to write 8-10%. The vacuum at the low idle was around 18-18.5" Hg. It still had a minor drop / fluctuation at idle at times and was steady at times as well during this tuning.
