Default Check my idle tuning approach please

After a lot of reading, this is what I conclude. Please let me know if I am on the right track. I have a 2004 GTO M6 with patriot performance stage II LS6 style heads (59cc), and a TSP 228/228 112LSA cam. I have problems with idling during driving. Coming up to stops she wants and does stall on me a lot. So, this is what I am going to try...

Zero out the throttle cracker table
Scale my idle spark advance 20* positive across the board
Raise my desired RPM 75 rpm

I will then:
log my idle with the idle config file, that so many use here, from cold to operating temp.

The desired airflow vs. ECT histogram values will be copied directly into the RAF table.
***Should I then add additional airflow to these values or not?

Please, if there is anything wrong or missing I would really appreciate the help. The damn thing is practically undriveable right now.

Thanks in advance

Per my other post in the other thread you started, you shouldn't be idling higher than 25*. I'd also set your warm idle no lower than 850~900rpms. Run the RAFIG process and adjust your base running airflow accordingly....and most of all, increase the delay timers I mentioned in the other post to 4~5 seconds.
