Well Bowhay- I guess you don't need to worry about getting a vacuum reading on the car-bee-rater... at least you have some extra power valves now. LOL!!!

Yeah it is...lol But still no matter how tempoting it is, save the beer/hot women till after the work is done :lol:

Other things? Well I'd start by pulling the pistons.

Broke rings, seized rings, collasped rings glands, cracked pistons all come to mind.

That or you've got standard pistons in a .060 over hole.

That amount of oil has to be coming from the bottom end.

Goodluck & tell us what you find> Cp

im stumped the only other thing i can figure is ignition, could this be the issue, maybe not gettin enough spark

It didnt matter what the idle was adjusted to they just Speed Test Pissed fuel down the carb. That might be something to look at.

Is it the correct gasket for that carb? Did you make sure there was no left over gasket stuck to the block?
