I just replaced the engine and exhaust in my 79 GMC Sierra 1500.  When starting from a stop, with light gas pedal, I get a shudder.  If I step on the gas harder, it goes away.  I replaced the distributor and rotor (HEI ignition).  Any ideas?

BTW, it's a 350 with 4wd.  I also replaced the U-joints on the rear driveshaft.
