What distibutor are you running? HEI? My 400/T400 did that twice and it was the module in the HEI both times. Ran fine until it got up to operating temp and then it wouldn't hold an idle unless you gave it a little gas with your foot. Ran fine at anything other than idle. What heads do you have? Those plugs are for later model heads aren't they?
