    stalling 327

     



    hello all,
    I've got a 1962 vette with the 327-250 that Im having some stalling problems with. when I start it up for the first time it runs wonderfully and will continue to do so untill I turn it off for about 20 min. anything less it seems to start and run just fine. anything after about 2 hours.. same thing. Doesnt seem to be just heat related. I had the engine rebuilt about 2000 miles ago but didn't have the carb done at that time.
    any ideas where I should start? carb rebuild? also its the orig carter AFB.
    Thanks,
    -Joe
