air idle control valve is something to check. What happens when you drive it? Does it surge or anything? Do you have an aftermarket ignition or anything on it?

Most definently sounds like the IAC motor. Very easy to change , two 8mm bolts is all that holds it on and sits right on the plenum.

I had an idling issue in mine when I first got it back together mainly because of the cams. I took the IAC off and sprayed it out with carb cleaner let it dry and popped it back on. I'd try that first before I bought one.
