1972 307 chevrolet c10 pickup.

What would make my carb sweat cold on the bottom outside while the engine is running?

I've changed the cam and lifters recently, carb was working before cam replaced.

The engine will fire over, and run for a second or two or it will run for a few minutes, sometimes, then shut off. When I depress the gas pedal, it seems like it starving, not wanting to rev up.

I think I have to readjust the lifters to make it run a little smoother, but that shouldn't cause the carb problems and the motor firing over and shutting off.

Help please???!!!!!!
