Hey guys and girls,
Little help please?

Vs 304 to 355 stroker with gilmers ,starts, idles untill the revs drop then just cuts out and dies,
Have been able to drive it however not very far before it cuts out.
Have checked every breather hose line etc to no avail, just keeps cutting out, won't conk out, it just dies right on the spot ? Have a video available however to big to upload will trim and upload soon, any help would be much appreciated

Has it been tuned? Can you keep it running with throttle?
Yeah, I agree, sounds like IAC didn't kick in, and the stall saver setting in the ECU is set to low.

That's a pretty wild intake setup, so will definitely need work in the tune around the idle area.

Looks really clean and shiney @shedevil666
I'd love to see more photos.

Has been tuned, was running mint up until about 3 weeks ago, then just started doing this while driving and now just at idle won't stay started.
