You mean (1) you go WOT and let off the pedal and it stalls, or (2) you press the pedal hard / WOT and it stalls?

1) stalls when I release the throttle after WOT. I am not sure if its because of incorrect adjustment of throttle dash pot, any other conditions that cause thius symptom?

My old carb setup would load up and choke if I jammed the pedal hard and completely lifted. Wouldn't be surprised if it was due to flooding from the pump shot in that case. I don't know the answer to this one so I'm all ears.
