Default Idle Surge Problem

I have a 306 with afr 185, b 41, trick flow track heat intake that i dropped in my car. Stock injectors and stock maf for right now. Im just trying to get the car to run strong.

I had a problem with the egr that I fixed but its still running like crap. I can get the car to level off after a while. I thought it was a vacuum leak, but I ran a vac test and its showing -10 to -13.

So its showing vacuum and im pretty sure i have everything sealed. I still have no power brakes.

Could it be a valve timing problem? The car starts and runs ok so i dont think the timings off. Anyone have suggestions?

Im not throwing any codes that the car is picking up on. Whats a koer test?

Im thinking that I have the wrong vac line hooked up to the egr. I took out the smog pump and the egr used to have a white line that ran to that connection with the smog pump i believe. Its been a while. Where do I run a vac line now that I dont have the smog pump? I tried just using one of the small ones under the intake but thats not working.

Also, should I hook the pcv back up? I plugged that for the time being but i think I should re connect that. Let me know what you guys think.
