A dashpot would be installed in front of the throttle linkage to prevent the throttle from closing too quickly. If you have the original 2-bbl this may work.

Dash Pot

I don't think one of these will cure your problem but it will improve the drivability.

Thanks for the info. Just replaced plugs and wires and was going to make sure timing was good but now it won't start. I think I might have other issues going on now. The last time I drove it, it didn't have second gear and was running rough and then the breaks went all the way to the floor. But start working again right after but not before I bumped a tree next to my drive way. Looks like I have a list of things to take care of.

Well I was able to get it going. It had some crud in the top of the distributor cap. Got it all cleaned and it's running good again. Adjusted the idle and fuel air mix and it's not stalling. Just finished up with the kick down cable. Had to get creative with it but it works great. Thanks for all the help.
