I have a 5.0 NON SMOG & it dies out after i get it to idle. The intake is a 3500-8000 parker intake. Its been running for a while & one night i romped on it & it started to do it.

I thought it was a carb, so i replaced it. But it still did it. Fuel filter good, Fuel pump good, Line is clean, How do i check my vacuum? Now Does anyone have any idea?

Sounds like a vac. leak. Get some carb cleaner and start sparying around all upper gaskets and listen for the motor to change.
