carb problems on new engine

i just dropped in a new 350. i put on a 650 double pumper holley carb. it used to run fine(first 60 miles) but one day while i was driving, it stalled. i would be be able to start my car and have it run good for about 30 seconds, then it stalls. i have no idea what it could be. this is my first time using a carb and any help would be greatly appreciated

also, can a car run with timing 14* btdc?
