stalls when ripped on and slow down

I have an 87 camaro 350 carb (more specs below) that if I rip on it sometimes and slow down fast but not too fast itll stall. I make sure I let it run for 10-15 minutes usually before I drive it also to heat up. Whats the problem?

Re: stalls when ripped on and slow down

Will it start right back up after stalling or do you have to let it sit for a while?

No it starts right up fine, I'm wondering if it needs to be idled up? Although it seems like its not too low when warm.

Re: stalls when ripped on and slow down

I take it you have a manual transmission. Does it stall when you floor it and leave it in gear without touching the brake, or are you braking too? or are you dropping it to neutral?

Raise your idle and check it out, you shouldnt be having that problem with your setup but raising the idle will help.
