Neighbors car.
scenario- 347 SBF engine, LX body w/5speed, 4.10 geras.
canfield heads, Air gap intake. Comp Hyd roller. new holley 650 DP. not the HP series.

car snaps when you first touch the pedal then stumbles and blue oil smoke ensues and a 'rich' smell is present all the time. I've already told hime that some out of box holleys are junk, but thought i would give some of guys a chance to chime in. engine holds 6" vacuum at idle. the carb is stock except for #45 power valves.
I already thought maybe too large of a squirter/jetting for the low velocity heads.
Yes, i already told him to put a Chevy engine in it many time over. :-)
