@64avanti: I'm still fussing with that heat riser spring. If you have an alternate number that really works, I'd be grateful.

Been driving it a little more and once it fully warms up it is pretty smooth. There is still a noticeable miss/shudder (idle and at higher rpms) but readjusting the transmission-carb linkage seems to have helped the peppiness a whole lot.

Not driving it for awhile has caused the trans to revert to creeping when in park and strained 'shifts' (i used Drive right). I'm hoping a lot more driving will help it sort itself out.
