Need help!!!!

Ok i have a 1977 f100 302 5.0 i have just done a complete tune up just about new everything! Just put in a new carburetor today and it sounds great! The PROBLEM is when its nice and warmed up and i start driving it starts to miss and then cuts of completely but if I put it in the neutral Or Park it'll start up again and sound great it only cuts out in Drive (i also got a new coil and fuel pump and filter still didnt fix the problem) can someone please help

Did you adjust the carb when you bolted it on, or did you just bolt it on an hope for the best ? What is the new carb ? (brand as in Holley, Motorcraft, etc)

Is the distributor connected to manifold vacuum source or a ported vacuum source?
