Default shovelution problems

Just put a new s&amp\\;s shovelution motor in my 77FLH, when i open throttle quickly from closed it is slow to respond and spurts a little, this only happens from closed, its fine if im riding and go from half throttle to full throttle but when i change gear and open throttle it is slow to respond, i tried adjusting the idle mixture screw with no change, the front exhaust is very blue compaired to the rear one which looks perfect?
