I'm running a Holley 3310, I believe it is 750 CFM, has vacuum secondaries, air filter is a smaller element after market (I need to measure the size), the intake manifold is an Edelbrock Performer 2104. The carburetor was rebuilt by me before being installed but I do not seem to have a record of the main jets in place.

There was not evidence of gas in the engine oil so I suspect that was not the problem.

I pulled the intake manifold and there is no evidence that there was oil coming in from the valley so I pulled the front clip and plan to pull the engine for dissassembly and inspection.

The good news is all the bolts associated with the front clip as well as the engine were recently installed so not fighting hardware like a normal vehicle dissassembly process.

November is a busy month so while I plan to get the engine out and the heads off I doubt I will get much further until after Thanksgiving.
