If it dies under 1,000 rpm, the first place I'd look would be the carb. Since it does this after warmed up, that means that w/o the extra fuel provided by the choke, it needs more fuel than the idle circuit can supply. That's where you need to start looking.
Did it just start doing this and has any thing been changed or worked on recently?

I agree with your note. Thank you for sharing
If you feel comfortable doing it, you should probably consider rebuilding the carburetor. HP Books has a very detailed book for both Holleys and QJets. I've done both and as long as you take time, it's not terribly difficult.
