My 70' 350 with Edelbrock carb fires right up. Takes off with a lot of power. Then after about 3 miles, it bogs, surges a little. I have to give light throttle just to barely get home. WOT and it just barely goes. It's a blast to drive up to that point.

List of what I've done in the past month.

New fuel lines, filters, pump, put in a regulator.
New distributor cap, button, module, coil, plug wires and plugs.
New battery, alternator and rewired engine compartment with new wire.

Does it sound like its time to rebuild the carburetor?
