Default

Float settings seem ok - a little to no dribble
Cleaned idle air bleed holes out w/paper clip and carb cleaner
Accelerator pump appears to work fine, 2 strong shots of fuel
No change in condition

Recap:
Car difficult to start even if warm, have to pump pedal
Will idle good for a handful of seconds at 1,000 rpm then it falls down and stalls out (warm or cold)
Holley DP is carb

Also checked fuel filter between tank and electric pump and looked like new. Car also has a mechanical pump
