If you have an off idle stumble, making the secondaries air baffle open faster won't fix it. Doing so might however introduce a mid throttle stumble. Going out on a limb here, I'm guessing you want the carb to be more smooth, not less. An off idle stumble is generally one of three things: a vacuum leak, improper pump shot, or delayed main circuit enrichment. This assumes the float levels are set right. AFB type carbs are really sensitive to this, and Edelbrock carbs are known for being off out of the box.
Can you "step through" the stumble? That is, if it stumbles with slight throttle movement, but roars back to life if you press the pedal more, suspect a vacuum leak on the timed vacuum side, such as the advance unit. Disconnect the vacuum advance and cap the port on the carb, see if that helps. If you can "feather" the throttle, or open it real easy (drive like a grandma) and it does not stumble, but a quick poke of the pedal causes a 0.5-1.0 second bog, but then it runs fine, it might be pump shot. If it's a little doggy for the first 1/4 throttle and then responds with more throttle opening, you may need stiffer springs under the metering rods (and in fact you probably would benefit from stiffer springs, but make sure you don't have a bigger problem first).
BUT, before you get too carried away with the carb, you should address the basic tune up. Specifically the base timing. 5 degrees BTDC at idle is not enough if you are running any sort of performance cam. In fact, with the factory cam, a 340 really liked 10 or more, but the factory set it really conservative for smooth idle, easy starting and emissions reasons. You'll probably be happier with 12 degrees initial and 36 total, as most small blocks are. With 35 total now and 5 initial, basic math would give you 42 total at 12 initial. Probably too much, but 30 degrees at the crank, (15 distributor) is typical of OEM smog era distributors. Mopar electronic ignition was a good system, but the factory advance curves were anything but high performance.
Assuming your vacuum advance works, and does not leak, you could try connecting it to full manifold vacuum (drivers side port). This will give you more advance at idle, possibly a lot more. In a situation like yours it may help low RPM response, but you are masking the real problem, not solving it.
