Tuning Issues
Ok so i "finshed" up everything on the motor and it start up like a champ every time however when idleing it stutters for a bit then dies. As far as the engine goes its from what i know a completely stock 1973 350 from a firebird with only a Edelbrock Torker manifold and a Holley 650 double pumper according to the paperwork that the previous owner sent me. If anyone can help me trouble shoot what the possible problem could be it would be greatly appreciated.
If needed i can certainly post a picture i just need to find my transfer cable.Chris Smock aka Blazed67

2003 VW Jetta Wagon 1.8T- the new DD
2006 Suzuki SV1000R- greatly missed

It could be as simple as a piece old gasket material blocking a passage and the condition you describes is usally a lean idle circuit.

Might even just need the idle screw turned up for the cam in it.Trying to idle too low can do that too.
