I've done some research but I just don't know enough to put it all together and make the car happy.

Any help or pointers would be great.

Nobody has spoke up so I'll try to help a little. I have a dozen or so tunes in class cars and have gotten completely away from using the IAC.I tried using mine in my personal car, but it has more disadvantages than advantages. I used a IAC all one summer and I think they are a waste of time. Its hard to keep them from surging around with the camshafts we use. And I don't see why its needed? It's just one other thing to mess with. If using the Holley, "uncheck/disable" the IAC in your settings and work on your idle/off idle areas a little ..
