Fresh rebuilt 440 w/ new Holley carbs (6 pack). I did not adjust the carbs out of the box other then the idle. Idles fine in park (727) and the timing is good. When I put it in gear it drops 500 RPM and wants to die. I give it a little gas and it revs up but drops right back down when I let off. Can the kickdown adjustment affect this? Due to the shifter linkage I'm using the kickdown lever can't return all the way (but it's close). Or is this more likely a carb issue? I have yet to drive the car and I'd like to iron this out before I do so.
