Thanks to all who responded to my email about my 69 stalling problem. You guys are a great wealth of information.
Elijah suggested a Edelbrock, I think that what I'll do since I've already had a new kit installed on the Holley. Thanks again.

I have a 69 Le Baron 2 dr. I have had carbarator problems. Any ideas?
Remove the Holley carburetor. Locate the nearest trash receptacle. Insert the Holly into the trash receptacle.
No joke.
There are a couple of good options for a new carburetor. The Edelbrock 1406 will bolt right on and be as close to bulletproof as you can find. Summit Racing has them -- http://tinyurl.com/qlmod -- as does Jeg's -- http://tinyurl.com/pyqh5. I've ordered carbs from both companies before and both are good places to do business.
Jeg's also offers a Chrysler throttle lever adapter that makes it a snap to mate the throttle linkage up to the new carb -- http://tinyurl.com/nd33w
You'll be amazed at how much better your Imperial runs with a new carburetor.
Good luck!
