Guys I installed a Chevy 305 in my 56 truck.  I installed a rebuilt 
carbuerator.   I only have about 10 miles on the rebuilt engine/truck.  
Initially it ran fine but now it runs for about 3-5 minutes sputters then 
dies.  It cranks fine but won't start.  Seems to be getting spark but no 
fuel.  Installed a brand new fuel filter with the engine rebuild.  After 
sitting for 15-20 minutes it will start again but will die again in 3-5 
minutes.

The engine is turned.  Full tank of fresh gasoline.

I'm stumped and really frustrated.  Any ideas?

Thanks a lot.
