Is there a vacuum leak at the base flange of the carb where it bolts on the manifold? Try spraying short bursts of carb cleaner around the base of the carb while the car is running. If there is a leak, the idle speed will change. Be carful with this procedure as a stray spark from a plug wire can start a fire. I've seen it happen, although not to me.
