Tips on tuning a Holley DP

I need all I can get. Float level, how to tell if my A/F ratio is right at all different speeds, how to diagnose bog...etc

Float level should be such that it just trickles out of the sight hole when you rock the car.

you can tell your A/F ratio by getting an A/F guage. $30, runs off your stock 02 sensor, and is invaluable. You diagnose bogs also with said gauge, altho 9 times out of 10 it's a badly adjusted screw on the end of the pump arm.
