Tony................WAIT...STOP! I just noticed that you NOW have that carburetor mounted on top of that goofy riser again, like you did once before. That's MOST of your problem. Look at the angle on your throttle rod. Your throttle spoon (gas pedal) is spending most of it's travel pulling your carburetor's butterfly shaft DOWNWARD, rather than REARward. Hell, get rid of that goofy riser and get that throttle linkage rod more
LEVEL, like real cars. Re-drilling and re-mounting that stud like previously suggested WILL NOT fix your situstion. Get that rod LEVEL! DD
