Ok, my motor has been rebuilt. Remanufactured carb, rebuilt turbo, forged pistons, stock cam, B&M 2800 rpm stall converter. My car loads up when given gas or put in gear. She bogs down and a fair amount of black smoke comes out, it seems worse when she's warm. When i give it gas she has very little power, i'm guessing from the richness of it all. She'll run ok in after 1500 rpm's but it seems the transition from idle to cruise there's a problem. I don't have my pecv hooked up (actually the alternative that pete came up with) but I'm not putting it into boost while i'm breaking the motor in so i'm not too worried right now. A little bit of fuel was comming out of port where the vac. line goes to the power valve. I'd hate to tear into that new carb but I might have to. I've checked vac. lines, used wd-40 to check for leaks. If anyone has any ideas of things to check feel free.
