The vacuum hoses may very well be in the wrong place (and it kinda sounds like it) but if they are where they've been all along, I'd say that for right now at least, it's a secondary issue. Something obviously changed.
Maybe a vacuum leak? Old, dry rotted vacuum hoses?
Hard to find anyone nowadays, even pro mechs, that know what they are doing when it comes to Quadrajets or even carbs in general.
