Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
You should be running a fuel injection system...
Sorry I couldn't resist, I actually know little (as I have forgotton almost all on purpose) about the old fashioned method of using carbs

Did you do the carb conversion yourself?
I really hope that your fuel pump (or, maybe the regulator, can't remember right now) was swapped with the low pressure unit required for the proper carb conversion. If not, the symptoms will be as you mentioned.
