Default 2g air bleeds

Non-stock 2g, 467 engine. Carb is very lean at idle, It is a nid-70's carb with large air bleeds in the top of the venturi cluster, .093. A/F gauge goes from 16's to 18-19 very rapidly at idle.

I found that if I cover the bleeds that I can get the A/F right in the 13.8-14.5 range,

Question is, will I really be fixing my lean idle circuit or will I cause other problems?

Also, it has .123 holes in the throttle plates. Would smaller holes give the same result as smaller air bleed holes? Or should I stop playing carb guy?
