Wont run right

Well I have sent the engine back to the builder and he found that all eight (8) of the oil rings never seated and the cylinders were all glazed??????????
So he honed the cylinders replaced the rings, put a new set of RHS heads on it put it on the Dyno 330hp 356tq. I re-installed it started it up and I have the same vibration at about 1800 - 2200 rpm and when I push on the power brake pedal the rpm goes up. When I drive it still feels like it is fighting itself I have disconnected the toque converter which makes no difference the carb that is on it was used during the dyno session same with the distributor, if I disconnect the power brakes it makes no difference. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
