if you can also answer i have a hill by my corn field that i cant climb half way up she shuts down i know its the fuel could a stronger fuel pump or a different carb fix that it has a Weber on it was looking at a holly 350 or 500 any advice
 
fuel pickup? float height in the carb? Dozens of possible issues could cause that, most likely fuel starvation.
yeah thats what i was thinking ? is how can that be fixed or would it be best to try a efi motor just another computer to have problems with
 
hard to beat EFI for wheelin tho...I've got it in all my rigs and it works well. Standalone TBI on my rock crawler, simple enough.

you've checked pressure? flow? filter? pulled the tank/pickup and cleaned?
