hesitation when i step on the gas

k i'v read a bounch of threads on hesitation but nothing seems to meat my problem, i'v just put a 350 bored 30 thou in my 84 camaro i'm using a edlebrock rpm air gap intake, holly 600cfm 4160 vacum secondary carb, mallory HEI distributor, a summit 110 gph fuel pump. i'v checked timing, valves,carb settings, vacum leaks and nothing every time i step on the gas it sputters and hesitates really bad then aventrally takes off and is good. thanks jason

Re: hesitation when i step on the gas

well i am just going through the same problem... did you set your float lvls? and your idle mixture with a vac. gauge? basically at this point you need more fuel how you accomplish that depends on a few different things
