carb tuning almost finished 1 thing left.

I rebuilt the top half of my carb, adjusted everything and it;s all in close to where it should be. The only thing really bothering me is when I mash the gas, the power comes on for a split second then bog and then it comes out of it pretty quickly but not quick enough, and if I power shift from a primary only first gear to a WOT second gear it hesitates then too, and it didn't use to. I have secondary air valve tension to around 5/8 and I'm using a B hanger with my original metering rods which are richer than DR's My original hanger was a G. I've tried adjusting my av tension tighter but the hesitation was still there. Any ideas?
