Edelbrock stalling then flooding.

Having a issue with Edelbrock carb. It runs good but it’s rich! If I let it run on idle it stalls out then floods bad. Fuel pressure is at 6 pounds.
I’ve set the floats at 7/16. Blown out the ideal circuits. The fuel mixture screw does nothing when adjusted also and my idle adjustment screw is backed out all the way.
Im not sure what the issue is I ordered a fuel regulator to try and bring fuel pressure down to 4.5. I’ve also ordered a 1/2 phenolic carb spacer but I don’t think that it is heat sink, because in this video the carb spacer is not hot to the touch.

Also have a video link of what it is doing. Any advice is helpful. Motor is a .06 over 283, I am running pcv on the old road draft system and it is working.
