Before we could tell you how to tune the carb, we need to know what kind it is. A holley gets tuned differently from a q-jet and edelbrock...THey all have their own ways of tuning them. Let me know and I could walk you through it
Step 1 really should be to pick up a good book so you have a reference to look at when people are telling you "adjust the *insert name of one of seemingly thousands of screws on a carb* screw." Exploded diagrams are your friend. A good read will help you understand how a carb works, too.
