Default low idle

i just finished installing the head and have low idle. like 200rpm low. it's slow to crank up also. if i rev up the motor no matter how high instead of returning to regular idle it almost dies out or does die out. check engine light is NOT on.
all vacuum hose are connected and i can't hear any leaks. i even tore down the motor to check the timing.

any thoughts?
