Some time ago I posted about my black sooty tailpipes. good advice came back from a number of bolters including Hotrod lincoln. He mentioned that I had too much carburetor on the 283. I was running a 650cfm edelbrock and have switched to a 500cfm AFB. the tailpipes are still black and sooty and the truck uses a LOT of gas. Maybe I need to swap inyake manifolds and go back to a 2barrel carb. Its obvious even to me that it is running way too rich but I don't know what to do about it. The truck starts and runs well and idles good and has good acceleration What should I do next?

Any advice is greatly appreciated
