Accelerator pump adjustment would be my first look.
The pump arm is attached to the throttle shaft. The slightest movement of the throttle should shoot some gas through the pump nozzles in the throat of the carb.
The arm of the pump should not have any slack in it. It needs to be just snug against the pump diaphragm. Its adjusted with a small nut on the pump arm. That usually takes care of it.
Also the proper timing does indeed make a difference.
Glad to hear you're making progress anyway. May even make you a Holley lover yet..LOL.
