I have a 73 Cuda with a 360, 2800 stall, 650 Holley carb. Car has ran fine since rebuild and recently this summer when it comes up to temp sputters out and stalls when in gear. When out of gear runs fine. Thought initally it was the trans / stall so I had trans rebuilt and stall changed. Both are functioning flawlessly. Timing is on and it is a mechanical fuel pump.

I'm lost now...Any ideas ?

THanks

the ony thing i can tell you is im not a holley fan. a electric choke edelbrock 650 would be my suggestion if this car came into my shop. its a sweet carb, idles great hot or cold and excellent performance. i use these on the boats i work on that have holleys or quadrajets and my customers are happy.
