If its a flex( the fins that straiten out when you rev the car) then rip that off there, also if that water pump is from a v belt set up and you put a serpintine on it, it might be spining it the wrong way, so you might want to look at it and think about that for a min. As far as your carb problems, I can help you a little but I hate edelbrock carbs, they can be a bitch to set up because they don't have a power valve like other carbs they have a damn needle valve that pisses me off everytime I fuck with one. With that cam and your carb not being set up right then your timing is probably advanced more than you think it is if your playing it by ear.
