Idle drop

When I put the lt1 into reverse or drive, it idles down to around 500 or so and feels as if it will stall out, but it never does and quickly picks the idle up. It only lasts for a second or so. Anyone know what can cause this?

I just did a lt1 motor swap into my 96 gmc truck. It has about 100 miles on the swap so far. lt4 hot cam, 1.6RR, springs, lotsa other stuff.
