I just got my car back together and it runs good just running around but when you stop it idles rough and cuts of and takes alittle bit to recrank. I also speced my idle at 750 and when it idles it is around 900 any solutions ?

Is this the first time it's run with the 52MM TB? The only way to control idle rpm is through the IAC. Mine had a very high idle (2K) for the first few start ups after the TB install, it slowly returned to normal within the same day. Have you had it tuned? If so contact whoever did it and ask about the idle setting.
