Thanx for the help though and trying to help me out. And the carbs are all holleys

if the fuel pump is blocked off then the carb. is the only way for fuel to get into the motor. how much fuel are we talking about?

enough to start to thin the oil after about 10 mins of driving.

How much fuel pressure are you running? Does the needle and seat stop the fuel flow into the bowl? Have you adjusted the float levels to the correct spec? When the engine is running at idle and see if there is fuel dripping into the engine above the throttle blades....

Thats what I thought but his answer #13 shoots that down.

i believe if that much fuel was getting into the oil, it should be flooding the motor out. JMO

it runs, but smokes a lot. I did check around the intake and before looking for leaks and couldnt find any. Same with around the carb. I took the intake off just to clear my mind and found nothing wrong there. IM just going to pull the oil pan and see if the bearings are ok, if go from there. If they are bad ill jsut do a whole rebuild. If theyre not, ill just take it in to a local rod shop and have them figure it out. Its very frustrating especially since i have probly wasted as much as it would have costed just to fix it with buying extra parts and tuning parts and so furth and still am stumped. Thanx guys for you info.

When you find the problem I hope you tell us

will do. It was white

but the coolant looks fine and so does the oil in color.The oil does get runny real quick and smells like fuel, but no signs of chocolate milk. Normal color and eveything. It does smell real gassy but its white smoke.
