Holly one barrel help

We have a 63 f100 with a 223 and a holly one barrel it was rebuilt at the beginning of the summer and was running fine until Saturday now it will not idle/run without the choke pulled and there is a woosh that comes out of the carb when you hit the gas. When you open the choke plate by hand under the hood sometimes it will stay running if you open it with the **** it will die also when you hit the gas it will stumble then accelerate like it is supposed too

Sounds like a vacuum leak. Did you replace the carb base gasket(s)? Could also be the vacuum advance can causing it to suck air.
