Still sounds like the idle circuit. What is the intake manifold? Is it a dual fuel and so hot manifold? Could the heat made for distillate be messing up the mixture between cylinders?

I have a '65 F-350 with the block changed to a 390 and some other 4 barrel carburetor. It sounded like it was rich at idle causing it to run poorly after a while, but actually it was running lean and the cure WAS raising the gas level in the float bowl.

Maybe you need to be sure the voltage regulator is set for 7.2 volts and keep the headlights on to give the engine a bit of load to let the governor open the throttle off pure idle.
