Edelbrock Antics

Back after a long time sick.
Trying to get a bit more economy from My 3.5 RV8. Edelbrock 1404, Offy Dual Port manifold.
Running the Eddy stock standard she starts first second on the key, runs and sounds superb. But getting a bit thirsty. So decided to try 1 stage lean.
86 Jet, silver springs and 67-55 rods. Lots of burbling back on overrun.
On the road jerky up to 2000RPM then TAKE OFF !!! nearly let go of the wheel! but very rough around 2000 revs.
Just for a giggle tried 68-52 rods, still on 86Main jet. VERY BAD on anything under 2500 RPM then lift off again.
Put it back to stock and again she runs superb.
would the 83 Jet behave the same?
