I have a problem that I hope someone can help me with.

This happens within 1/2 mile of leaving my garge. We are dealing with a 
2000, the carbs have new needles & nozzles & hoses, new gas filter, with a 
points sytem & Pertronix, old & new wires.

I start the car and it is running great I pull out and 1st & 2nd gears top 
out at 4,000 rpm. No matter how hard I try I can not get any more power out 
of them. In 3rd gear it tops out a liitle higher but then I loose all power. 
It starts running like it is on 1 cylender. Have checked the float bowls and 
there is gas in them. My filters are see thru and I have gas before and 
after the pump.


Anyone have any ideas?
