Hey Shane,

The stepping down is not the issue, it's that it's idling much too high.
The V8 as I've read is supposed to sit 700 when warm, whereas it currently sits at 900 - 1000 RPM.
Prior to all of my trouble it'd start off at about 1400 RPM and step down more and more till 700 when it was warm. Currently at cold it sits at 1800.

-EDIT: I just went outside and turned it on just to test it. When it turns on from cold, it revs to 1400, sits, then slowly creeps upwards till at 1800.
When you start it when it's warm, it'll rev up to 1800, sit, then creep down to 1200.
