Just when I think this thing is working right, I have another issue.....
Now it will stall out on me (I assume because it is flooding) if I don't let it warm up for a while. Only way I can restart it is to crank it for a while and hold my foot into it. Eventually it will come back around and run. But this has happened twice in the middle of the road. I have to really rev it to get it to stay running. Then once it is warm, no issues the rest of the drive. It only seems to happen in the first 5 mins of running.
Also, last night trying to leave work I guess I flooded it and absolutely could not get it to start. It took me an hour of fooling with it to get the flood to clear and get it to run.
My thoughts are right now is that the choke isn't opening fast enough, or I have it set too tight. I don't have a choke index on this carb; I assume because the choke was never meant to be adjusted due to emissions. I'll try loosing it a little today and rotating it towards the front of the bronco.
This engine floods very very easily...... Some of this can be Operator Error, but the stalling to me sounds like the choke still isn't right.
Carb gods, please lend me your advice....

Edit: also I hooked the thermostat on the choke back up to the original wiring. I had moved it to the alternator at one point, but this weekend I wired it back up original wiring. Choke has done the same thing both times with both wiring.
