The egr was removed before I got it, also the car now runs on 2 and 1/2 turns out on each side with the Holley 350 any less any I’ll die trying to accelerate usually fine idling. more turns out it will sputter at certain speeds and I assume is should need more turns out because it’s already rich. When I first got the car some push rods were bent, every thing is moving freely now but could my cam be wiped it has 120000 miles?

I don't think your idle circuit should be affecting your cruising issue or your acceleration issues.

The egr system and flapper, not sure if that year had a flapper, was removed and the holes were welded solid.
The "flapper" (manifold heat control valve) has nothing to do with the EGR, and should not have been disabled/hacked. That alone can cause a good list of driveability/economy problems.
