first thing I'd do is get rid of some vacuum lines, I just did that and mines never run so smoothly!  If you don't have A/C, or don't plan on using your existing A/C, you only need 3 vacuum lines!  1.) From intake manifold to brake booster 2.) From intake manifold to HVAC system 3.) From throttle body nipple to vacuum advance.  I went to town with rubber corks and rubber nipples, getting rid of 10-15 feet of vacuum lines and blocking off anything left open.  Heres a good tech-note to start off with, made by Ryan H. IIRC:  http://home.epix.net/~rhock99/tech_cc.htm  Replacing your fuel injector seals also would be a very good idea!  While doing that you can check your injector spray pattern and find out if there is a problem there(I remove them with vice-grips).
Removing all the lines makes much less chance for vacuum leaks and silly things to go on, as well as the engine easier to work on.  I highly recommend it!  HTH,

car I have had to feather the gas after starting for about 30 secs. After 
that it runs fine! Any ideas from that?

TIA,
