Default 87 gt

i recently reaccuired my 87 gt ttop car back it had caught fire under the hood before i got it and now has a brand new holley carb and edelbrock intake with a five speed it is awsome off the line and 2nd +3rd gear but when i let off of the gas and cruise at a steady speed it seems to be shuddering when i go and push the gas again to accelerate i think it might be the clutch slipping when i am on it and i just cant tell but when i ease on it is more obvious do yall think that this is my problem has this happened to anyone else help please this is aggravating i have to drive this car while i take apart my 91 vert for a t-5 conversion
