Now that everything is back together you have strong vacuum and your fuel trims are spot on. Looks like you fixed it!

With the idle, it takes a few minutes after a big change for it to level out. Was your ac on though? Idle without ac should be around 650 but idle with ac on is much higher, closer to 1k.
