Check the idle speed before you try anything else. Factory spec is 450 rpm.

Hey folks,
I am in need to tap all the big brains registered. My 55 Special (264) has always had a problem with the engine idle dropping, sometimes the engine stalls, when it is put into gear. Engine and Trans are original. I just completed a carb rebuild and tune up (changed rotor cap, rotor, points, wires, plugs, reset timing, etc.), but it is still dropping the idle when I put it into drive or low. It idles great in park or neutral. Any ideas or thoughts?
Thanks as always,
Steve
