Mickey says: "it seems to have lost about 200 rpm at idle."
That sounds like the same thing as saying: "It seems to have lost one cylinder". And that's actually GOOD news.
If you lost a cylinder it is somewhat easy to figure out which one, and then on your way to fixing it.
When it is running 200 rpm slow, unsnap a plug wire -- one at a time. Three of the plug wires will respond by practically killing the engine, one of the plug wires will be unsnapped with practically no effect at all. Focus on the cylinder associated with that plug wire.
First of all, make sure the plug wire is throwing a spark. If it is, stop chasing electrical (distributor, coil, plug wires, etc.)
Avoid the temptation to immediately jump on the carb. You have already covered the most common culprit by blowing out the idle jets. Instead, quickly pull a valve cover and take a look at adjustment. Maybe a rocker arm adjuster is loose, maybe a valve spring is broke. In any case it is real fast and easy to take a look at the valve train and quickly find a problem or rule it out as a problem.
When you know it's not the idle jets, and you know it's not electrical, and you know it's not mechanical (valve train), and you know that the cylinder is still unresponsive to plugging and unplugging the spark plug wire, THEN go back to the carb.
So far, you have invested 15-30 minutes in process of elimination. Now it is time to take no prisoners. Pull the carb out of the car, AND the manifold. Check the gasket between the manifold and the head, it is fairly common for this gasket to get destroyed and allow an air leak. If that isn't the problem, then tear down the carb and blow everything out.
If you don't have a new manifold gasket, some say that just a bead of copper RTV works just as well (even better) than the gasket. I don't know, I've always had a gasket. But, I would go with the RTV if missing a major event was on the line.
Put it all back together, tune it up starting at the very beginning with balancing the carbss. Cross your fingers.
If you took it step by step, you can cover all of it in one night (4-6 hours).
