Hesitations can almost always be fixed with a pump shooter change. Go a few thou bigger and try again. If you have 15 in of vacuum at idle your cam is NOT too big or retarded.
If the cam is okay, then maybe it is me that is retarded!! I'll get a couple of different size shooters next time I get ready to order from Summit...I can't find squat for Holley parts here in Caldwell. I have the spring assortment, I'll swap to the black spring today and give that a try.
I probably need to find a carb guru local to me and pay to have it done right. I used to have a friend back in SoCal that was an idiot savant. Guy could barely latch the velcro straps on his sneakers but he could get a carb tuned. <sniff sniff> I need to send him an email, but I'm not sure if he knows how to turn his computer on.
